Bankers, Tech Execs Know The Collapse Of Society Is Coming And Are Feverishly Prepping

[Newest Reality]

This is an article from last year, but there are many of them and some are more in depth and recent.

Well, they are like Boy Scouts. Be prepared. It would be silly to not have contingency plans if you have billions. However, how they see things is very troubling and noteworthy. So, you talk about accountability, they get to help mess it up royal and then split. How cool is that? It would be better for the rest of us if there was some incentives involved to reverse the tide, so to speak.

I see potential problems with the long-term aspects of their plans, but I won't go into that here. I also assume there are other places and plans that we may not be aware of. The more you have the more routes of escape and havens you can consider.

While most of the general population has been lulled into a false sense of security, bankers and tech executives are spending millions upon millions of dollars to prepare for the collapse of society. Do they know something that the rest of us do not?

2. There are other sources...

I just picked this article for the brevity and key points.

K?

6. I added a link above to The Guadian

There are actually many articles online about it. Some approach it from different angles.

3. Have they figured out how to stop their own security forces from...

...simply disposing of them?

5. Bingo!

That's what I was alluding to about things not necessarily working out well in the long run

It seems to be the same mentality that many backwoods preppers seem to have. I don't think it is well thought out and you can easily imagine the nightmare scenarios that could befall them. But hey, they can dream on. There are far too many factors involved and a whole lotta' chaos would be going on.

10. Yeah. Without organized police forces that are paid with public money.

There would be no one to stop their protectors from shooting them in the head and taking anything that they want, without any concerns about being brought to justice.

7. America has turned into a giant version of the Jerry Springer Show.

8. Well.

I hope that they have PLENTY of food and water stockpiled. The last two times functioning societies fell apart, Royal France and Czarist Russia, the chaos lasted for many decades. If those idiots think that they will be able to grow vegetables and food animals with the world collapsed around them for decades, they are fucking idiots. Their great wealth is a result of a functioning financial system, which will not exist in a reign of chaos. Outside of what they can take in their bunkers with them, they will be penniless. Even with their tech sophistication they won't be able to extract any of their money from a new system, if they try that will give them away and they will almost surely be found and murdered in the most horrendous way that their captors can imagine.

11. JUST IMHO I have often thought this is why Kocks and others expose there is no climate change

All the while amassing as much money as they can. They aren’t really climate deniers, they want us to believe it so there’s no panic.. for as long as possible giving them a head start on survival

In the end I think that’s a pipe dream as well.

12. The wealth hoarders do seem to be prepping.

Maybe they wouldn't have to if they stopped stealing wages and tax dollars from the lower economic classes. They also pollute and pillage the commons and scoff at having to pay even a dime of taxes. I think excessive greed is a form of mental illness.

13. Prepping for the coming collapse of civilization is an intelligent move

However, prepping via stockpiling beans and bullets in a lonely bunker is the dumb way to do it.

Society will collapse because we're going to ignore climate change and environmental degradation until natural disasters bankrupt nations and devastate crops globally. At that point (my guestimate is it will begin in earnest around 2050), the smart people will have already organized local circles of resilience, working together to maintain what they have, grow and preserve food, etc. Look to movements like Transition Towns for examples of who will make it through: https://www.transitionus.org/transition-town-movement

The loners die; only communities survive.
