Billionaires Endgame [View all]

Another recent thread in General Discussion here was talking about the billionaires and how they plan to retreat into their billionaire bunkers when the SHTF.

It is actually way more insidious than that. All these data center to run AI machinery that the Silicon Valley TechBros are creating? The massive data centers that are environmental catastrophes waiting to happen, where they want to use mini nuclear power plants to power these Manhattan Island sized megalithic structures. They want these to run society. Not a society were you and me, useless eaters inhabit, when the jobs are gone and they've taken our Social Security and Medicare, their plan is for us to just die off. Don't buy into their new found Christianity, the only role Peter Thiel will be playing is the Beast itself.

These billionaire psychopaths want to live forever. And they are gonna use their AI and their computing power to enabling them to try to do that. Ever since Ray Kurzweil wrote "The Singularity", Trans humanism has been their religion. They think they can locate and identify a human soul or for lack of a better word human consciousness and download it into their AI database mainframes and they think they need a lot of computing power to do that. Which ever way they think they can come by to achieve immortality, they will do it. Once you've bought your 7th mega yacht, once you've gone to space, once you've had breakfast in Saint Barts and flown to Paris for a feast of Ortolan with your billionaire friends. What else is there? Immortality.

The ability to preserve a human soul in a forever container is not likely, but these Billionaire sickos think that chance is not zero. Each one of these billionaire gluttonous fucks will destroy the planet and all of humanity if there is even a .000001% that they could live forever.
