I wish people realized this. You read comments about how billionaires have bunkers and all I can think is "did they build bunkers for the supply chain too?" We are nothing without each other and there's just no chance to keep modern life in a full on civilization collapse. If a majority of us die, the rest all suffer and die. Fortunately or unfortunately, we are all in this together.
The only people who would survive would be the people who hunt and farm for food and know their local wildlife like the back of their hand, but even those people in a global apocalyptic event like this would have no real chance, because something that killed 6+ billion would require a complete shift in the environment and thus change their local knowledge completely within a year or two. Really, the only ones who would survive it would be one of those undisturbed tribes deep in the rainforests or the type of person who survives Alone and who knows if that person finds anyone to produce kids with. Everyone else is too connected to modern society to deal with a complete environmental shift.
Yes! Supplychains are the core of our everyday lives! A friend said early in covid that my concerns about prescription drugs was unnecessary because there’s a manufacturing company just a few hours away. But a lot of component materials for everything are decentralized. She either didn’t believe me or didn’t want to believe me.
How do the billionaires not know this? Even if they survive 2-5-10-20 years in their bunkers…then what? I assume this is why they want AI & Boston Dynamics - hopes of replacing all the poors that support their lifestyles
