Relin posted:people will just move back in (unless you mean the parts that are underwater) if they can afford it. people keep rebuilding in hurricane zones every year without learning any lessons (aside from the poor who cant move) i mean that climate change is going to kill off a ton of people that voted for the politicians that enacted the policies that will cause the global collapse. when these people die in some part of the country / world that's then uninhabitable due to environmental collapse, what use are the assets that get left behind? houses specifically are notorious for being immobile, but i figure capital must have some back-pocket plan for that poo poo because they literally can't NOT have some angle planned to keep the grift going. like right now there's literally more unoccupied homes across the US than homeless people, but obviously the banks aren't just going to agree to let people live in them rent free. but what's the plan when the outstanding inventory of unoccupied homes MASSIVELY outnumbers the total population of people that could even theoretically occupy them, let alone what happens when said homes are located somewhere that no human can survive?

Shipon posted:they don't have a loving plan This. They would burn the world to increase profits, then short their shares and move on once it dries up. They see a bank account like a score board: all that matters is that your numbers go up, and the other numbers don't grow more than yours. As for moving on: they don't understand that this is it. Either they are counting on going to heaven when they die, or to a summer home once they get ousted for being a sex pest or criminal sociopath. They never knew and will never know consequence for being poo poo.

Martin’s business would be harmed by a no-deal Brexit, pushing up the cost of flowers imported from the Netherlands. But it would still be worth it, he said: “I just want to be out.” quote:On their rugs stall, Ray and Jane Woolley said they too had stopped voting Labour, because “they let too many people in”. Both voted to leave and said the debate had been taken over by “doom and gloom scaremongerers”. These people are already suffering due to the Conservatives and Austerity but would be utterly destroyed by Brexit. Yet here we are.

J.A.B.C. posted:This. yeah but at the same time, capital will figure out how to monetize the death squeal of the pig as it's slaughtered in the abattoir because it compulsively has to make number go up. so i guess to update my original question, i agree they might not have an explicit plan now, but i'm still curious how they'll try and monetize a bunch of "valuable" assets that can no longer be occupied because they exist in spaces that are uninhabitable for humans.

It's not like this'd be the first time capital's laid waste to a piece of formerly rich land, and we can't observe what's happened to colonies, the rust belt, etc.; the answer is they'll use the money they made bleeding the region dry to move on to a new victim if one is available and simply die if one is not. There is no grand scheme and simply because they must grow or die does not mean that they're all that great at turning setbacks into growth; even with literally the entire world at its disposal and more unexploited resources and slave labor than the plutocrats could hope to consume in a lifetime capital causes cyclical recessions where everyone loses their shirt every decade.

They're depressed wretches, and they numb the pain with racism/classism what have you. But it never heals the wounds and so they stay mad and stupid and racist forever until they die.

That still leaves you with eliminating the sources as the main practical thing you can do about the situation. A Wizard of Goatse has issued a correction as of 17:18 on Sep 4, 2019 |

I love telling the techbro chuds my brother has to work with and who vote loving FvD when they gush about Stark Trek (which they do, a lot TOS TNG and DS9 debates are common) "You...do realize Star Trek is set in a Socialist Utopia right?" "Nah man! Pinnacle of humanity, aliens gotta listen to us...it's Randian man, we're just the best." "Y-You can't honestly believe that...a Federation that looks out for its workers/members and gives everyone an equal chance in its system." "Man, you gotta read Atlas Shrugged, it'll blow your ff'in mind you commie." I cleaned it up a bit, but almost word for word.
