I think his post is 50% truth, and 50% exaggeration.

The 50% truth is that the environment is changing and will have an impact on everyday life. An example is last year's heatwave in Europe, where it got so hot, the asphalt was melting. This type of lifestyle just isn't sustainable, and it will inevitably lead to millions of people trying to immigrate to safer countries...

But the exaggeration is believing the Elites are all ready to leave this Earth. Not anytime soon. Where are they going to go? The Moon? Mars? Even when no actual infrastructure exists up there outside of a flagpole or some robots driving around? They would eventually die in outer space unless they have a solution for growing their own food or having a reliable source of water.

Ultimately, this just shows why the Elites are crazy. They're willing to watch the planet die and Western civilization crumble, which will wipe out all their wealth with it. It's a zero sum game where no one wins.

It's the last week of fucking January and it's 50 degrees and raining over here. Where tf is the snow

I think getting arctic adjacent land is a very good play as climates warm tbh, they're the final frontier mankind has left to fully colonize.

Their rationale is that no matter how bad it gets they can simply pay to live above it while oppressing the populace as punishment.

Even if this was true, you still have the billions of Africans, Hispanics, and poorer Asians who will all want to live there too.

There's just not enough space or resources to support them all.

Droughts that make it impossible to grow food will wipe out this process.

Meant more in terms as an individual investment. I think by the time the global south is uninhabitable from climate change it would also be very depopulated from food crises and birth rate collapses.

hope they meet their end like this
