    New Zealand won’t be exempt from climate change and they have to come out of their bunkers at some point. I always ask myself what good their money will be when global trade collapses. How long until their security guards realize that they hold the real power?

      Security guards have families, families can be held hostage safely in the bunker while the guards battle the hungry hordes outside.

      It’s already happening, North Island has been flooding so much this year it’s barely newsworthy anymore. And yet people think voting in the rightwing “we need to be fiscally conservative but also we will spend billions on roads” party is a good idea.

        So, pretty much like every other Western country. I’m in Germany, and conservative thinking and an openly fascist party are on the rise, while everything is blamed on the Greens in the government.
