The rich, headed by Musk, are trying to remove information about their private jet flights from the public record though.

MODERATORS
They won't have enough genetic diversity and will get inbred, if they can survive even one generation lol.
To go where? 🤨
And I always wonder, will they do their breakfast, or wash the floor, or wipe their asses all by them self or they think they'll be able to exploit people once civilisation collapsed and they don't have a system to protect them ?
They say their staff is going to wear suicide collars. Not joking.
Will they at least be allowed to return to New Vegas if they figure out how to complete the DLC?
Well that's just the plot of Horizon!
Fuck Ted Faro.
It's pretty dark actually. Some are thinking of outfitting their employees with shock/death collars they can control remotely, drones, all sorts of stuff like that. There was a guardian article about it a few years ago.
I think this is it: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/23/tech-industry-wealth-futurism-transhumanism-singularity
There is a podcast with the Daily Shows Jon Stewart where he says this as well. He was at a dinner party and rich people were talking about how to control populations after monetary means are gone.
will the person responsable of the maintenance be wearing one as well? Well... i guess with ICE and all the techbros licking trump and elon asses they would in fact find people to treat others like animal while staying themselves loyals just because something
These tech lords are going to discover they aren't as tough as they think if things really fall apart.
Even before the militaries take control, an inevitability in that situation, local warlords, often security services out of work or not being paid, would take them out.
To go where?
Mostly New Zealand afaik
will they do their breakfast, or wash the floor, or wipe their asses all by them self or they think they'll be able to exploit people once civilisation collapsed and they don't have a system to protect them ?
Definitely the latter. And the worst thing is that they'll probably be right for at least a few decades, with how deeply ingrained unjust hierarchies are in the psyches of normal people 😮💨
Argentina is the new popular one. Thiel's big compound got turned down by NZ, he has stuff out there but not the compound he wanted, last I heard.
Now he's building something in Argentina.
Traditional hiding place for those of a certain stripe
So that's why it's removed from all the maps! They think we won't find them...
Best guess on where they’ll go is probably somewhere remote like a cabin in Montana or Tennessee or something. So if this triggers and show a bunch going to small airports then that might be a better indicator. Also, they all compete with each other so it might not be a homogeneous movement. There’s probably not a sense of community with them when it comes to survival or helping each other out.
To your second point. I think most of them would think having a few close employees would be enough to do things for them. A few house maids and a few security staff they can boss around.
Let them take to the skies, they will drop like flies when the emp hits. The reaper will come for all sooner or later.
That's mentioned on the site, I guess because of lightning planes are better shielded.
Getting some serious Miracle Mile vibes.
Funnily not a lot of jets over east Asia
Any of them planning to flee to the Ozarks? I need to know where to go live out my Fallout fantasies when shit hits the fan.
It will let me know when 15 years ago happened?
