William Lindsey :toad:Nolan asks,"Odd, is it not, that a man whose primary concern is global equality would need a subterranean apocalypse shelter designed to seal him off from all of the (equal) people outside who would be, presumably, burning or starving or being eaten by the zombies?"Perhaps "equality" means something different to the Zuckerbergs and Dorseys and Thiels and Musks of the world than it does to us ordinary non-tech-bro folks?<a href="https://toad.social/tags/Zuckerberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Zuckerberg</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/SuperRich" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperRich</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/SelfPreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SelfPreservation</a> /3

But in the real world, what is Zuckerberg actually doing? He's spent almost a decade buying land on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, and is building a survival shelter for himself and his family there.<a href="https://toad.social/tags/Zuckerberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Zuckerberg</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/SuperRich" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperRich</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/SelfPreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SelfPreservation</a> /1<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/21/mark-zuckerberg-apocalypse-bunker-hawaii" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/21/mark-zuckerberg-apocalypse-bunker-hawaii</a>
