The thing is the 1% think that they can do that. But if they did everyone would just die and then they would have no money. It's like the idiotic bunker plans to survive the end of the world, what's their long-term strategy, they're going to survive the environmental collapse they themselves caused and then what they're going to do, live in the bunkers for the rest of eternity?

    Unironically yes, I think that's their plan.

    Micro fiefdoms for themselves and their immediate descendents and fuck the rest. A power structure and loyal caste to be their knights/enforcers.

    There's a good reason why many lefty thinking heads are calling this techno-feudalism, and comparing TESCREL ideas to medieval ideologies.
