      Somewhere, somehow, those bunkers will need air intakes. Some potatoes to plug tubes, or mustard gas packets down the hatches … the problem is, bunkers make excellent prisons and/or tombs.

        The ultra wealthy also don’t do shit in their own and will be expecting at least a small team of other people to cater to them while they weather the storm. There is no future where the ultra wealthy get to keep all the things they have collected.

            A healthy and well designed septic system will handle a free humans for decades if you treat it right.

            That shouldn’t be the hard part.

            There’s a whole rich people Island neighborhood (I didn’t think they were bunkers) that wanted to pipe their waste back to the mainland because they didn’t think anything through when building it

              I like shitting on billionaires as much as the next person, but presumably they didn’t design any of this themselves. Most likely story is they just don’t want to pay their fair share as usual.

                They didn’t want it near them and assumed they’d be able to pay their way to dumping it on the poors. Don’t give them an out.

          You don’t realize how far gone some “house slaves” are gone down the rabbit hole. They have their chosen special ones. Who will do anything they want.

            They will, in all likelihood, involve counter measures like explosive collars.

            Or the one from Horizon. Surgically implanted “Off” switches that kil function implanted into sterilized individuals. Literally had the surgery center at the entrance to the bunker.

              What part of the device will do the killing?

              Would installing such devices make the news?

              What if an enemy did a mass triggering of switches?

                In horizon the device was in your head from the moment you entered the bunker.

                Would installing such devices make the news?

                If you have to enter the bunker then the world has gone to shit. There is no more “news”.

                What if an enemy did a mass triggering of switches?

                Then everyone below the billionaire would be kill.

      They almost always need some access to the outside, for air or water. Regardless, it’s only so strong. Even if it’s self-sustaining, a few guys with pickaxes could get through whatever wall they have in probably a few months, at most. Assuming everything doesn’t collapse, heavy machinery or explosives would make quick work of them. A bunker is only useful if there’s nothing on the outside actively trying to open it up.
