      I keep thinking of the line from Futurama about global warming, "luckily Nuclear winter cancelled it out"

      Conspiracy theory - they know humanity is doomed on this course and they hope to survive in a paradise built on our corpses.

      Now that I said it out loud, this could've been an applicable quote at any point since the inception of capitalism.

      But what I mean in this case is that they think they have a better chance surviving a nuclear war than a climate war.

        But how would that even fucking work? It just... makes no sense. Capitalism is what it is today because it exploits over 7 billion humans. A nuclear war would mean the end of capitalism, too, because it would be the end of society.
