That's the worst part. They're definitely the ones least equipped to deal with an end of the world scenario. Their preferred "problem solving" technique of just throwing money around doesn't work when supply chains, societies, and currencies are not functioning.
Has anyone else noticed the super-rich have been using their hoarded wealth to buy heavily-fortified mansions with bunkers, private islands, or lifeboats to space?
As someone from new Zealand: Yes. Yes, we have!
"we've never faced a single consequence before in our lives, so we're sure this threat from the very laws of nature themselves will also be a paper tiger daddies money will stop."
Fuckin' right, we never should've let these assholes rebrand themselves as "boomers" when their parents nailed it. The Me Generation always was self-absorbed and ignorant of the world. Born on third thinking they hit home runs.
That seems about right.
Is that a word or a pattern in the top left? Nancoo?
and they have the gall to call themselves leaders.
They are leaders just like the engine on a runaway train
