    I’ve been saying this. These fucking capitalists are so god damned stupid. They can’t see past their own profit projections.

      This time is different. This time they have Palantir, and a massive government military industrial complex, militarized police, drones, flock cameras

      At least that’s what they think. Things are going to break this year that have never broken in living memory. The American Southwest is going to run out of water. 50 million people will do what exactly when the wells and reservoirs run dry due to a super El Nino and record low reservoir levels?
