There is no plan. Capitalism is not a cohesive scheme deliberately engineered and steered by the bourgeoisie. It's an engine that was set into motion at one point and has been trucking on by itself ever since. It preserves itself by rewarding those who uphold it and punishing those who dissent.

Let's say Jeff Bezos got the Ebenezer Scrooge treatment tonight and woke up a changed man who genuinely cares about his workers. If he tried to improve labor conditions at Amazon and it cut into profits, Amazon shareholders would sue into oblivion and some board of directors would appoint a new guy who's willing to do whatever it takes to make number go up. Every politician who tries to change the system gets drowned out by corporate donors simply protecting their short-term interests and every corrupt politician who works to maintain it gets rewarded.

There's nobody at the steering wheel here. The bourgeoisie is along for the ride just like you and me, they just have nicer seats. Capitalism sustains itself through the immediate short-term incentives it creates. If you sell out, you can have a nice life right now. If you don't, someone else will.

Hungry ghosts don't have an endgame, they just keep eating. The billionaires want to eat everything, and once there aren't any poors left to eat they'll eat each other, and once they're the only person left alive they'll eat themselves. Endless hunger forever.

you're thinking small, buddy, there are so many planets out there we can ruin (no I will not invest in science and education so we can actually build the rockets, i'll just give a trillion dollars to the ketamine man)

They are simply following the logic of their class unfortunately the 1918 German Revolution failed so we’re cooked

There is no endgame. Its fiefdoms fighting for next week's resources.

they want to own slaves and die of old age

They plan to use their current influence to prepare as much as possible to enslave enough workers to keep around after The Event happens. I’m talking shock collars, social engineering surrounding access to food and water, unlimited surveillance. They see the upcoming disasters that their exploitative lifestyles are directly causing as unpreventable tragedies, so they’re having fun while they can and scheming about how to maintain as much comfort and power as possible after The Event.

I don't think they can see that far. Even the ones with bunkers might be a minority. And the ones with bunkers still need to hire guys to tell them to consider putting shock collars on their guard slaves in them.

Based on the shit the tech bros say I think they genuinely want to engineer some master race in a bunker to retake the earth.

Tunnel vision.

the point is they get to maintain superiority over the poors

I don't know what they're thinking about, the bourgeoisie consider me too subhuman to have a discussion with.

There's a significant amount of them trying to bring about the biblical endtimes. There is no plan for the future, it's only for the right now

Uhhhhhh... But number go up.
