You’re both right. The rich people have been doomsday prepping for several years now: buying private islands, building underground bunkers beneath them, and hiring private armies to defend them.
They say out loud that climate change is a hoax, but they’ve been frantically preparing for it because they know the truth, because they can pay for the truth.
And they can pay to keep us from it: that we should already have been in a panic about it, but they’re paying to stop us from panicking – at least until they can get out of the killzone.
