It won't actually help them, living in a bunker is a miserable experience and they still require people to run the bunkers for them. Capitalists seek accumulation, bunkers are a fallback for them.
Also bunkers need vents and vents don't work well when a bag of concrete is poured down into them.
I can totally imagine some pathetic lumpen being paid a pitiful amount to stay outside in the nuclear fallout guarding the air openings so no one does that
"ventguard for a Billionaire-bunker" does sound like some grimdark cyberpunk Metro 2066 type job
Nah, they get a piece of the pie once we clear the bunker.
agreed and they likely see it as a miserable failback as well, but what matters to them is that they have a failback so that they feel like they can be bolder than the rest of us who have any tailbacks.
Still doesn't get around that their pursuit is accumulation, so they don't want to stop that process.
i've always understood this to be a trend instead of a rule of the ruling class and i suspect some cabals of the ruling class care more about pushing for absolute dominance more than anything else.
Classes are aggregates, not totalities. There can be people in a class that act irrationally, but the class as a whole moves in its own percieved interest.
