But can they really trust their guards? What guard wouldn't want to have the nickname the kingslayer?

There is a very thin line between “Safe inside your bunker” and “Trapped inside your bunker”. The people on the outside dictate how that plays out.

Castles often weren't conquered by forcefully breaking through the walls but rather by keeping them under the siege until their inhabitants either surrender or die from hunger.

Stay scared, shitheads.

Fine. Trap them in their palaces. Turn them into tombs.

You need to be more alarmed about this.

Conservatives (and the rich tend to side with conservatives) have no imagination and project their own intentions on others.

I cannot possibly stress this enough:

IF THEY THINK WE'RE GOING TO VIOLENTLY ATTACK THEM, IT'S SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE PREPARING TO ATTACK US THEMSELVES.

They have THOROUGHLY demonstrated that they can't imagine anyone wanting to do anything but that which they themselves want to do, are preparing to do, or are ALREADY DOING.

Mark my words:

The rich are preparing to exterminate us all.

Do they not realize the ones installing their security devices are also the same people they are trying to protect against?

Society failed when it allowed people to start accruing this kind of wealth

Air supply. You can find the intake with those microphone cameras or old school smoke.

The Hamptons are a low lying area. You never want to be defending a low lying area.

Seems a lot simpler to just not be a greedy POS.

If you're so afraid of the proles maybe you should give up a fair share of your slice.

Ya think this be related to the rumor that rich people taste like wagu? Plenty of alcohol an massages make for great marbling

You know what's cheaper than building fucking castles and living in fucking fear all the fucking time?

Paying your taxes to fund a proper welfare state. Simple as.

So....

Anyone have stocked up on siege weapons?

When met with walls and steel gates, just use your cannon, as the founding fathers intended.

Back? wait... what did you think US suburbs were designed for then?

if only, and stay with me here, if only there was some contraption invented since we last had moats around castle, i don't know, something that can fly in the air and carry, oh i don't know, bags of shit over these moats and into the castles, maybe even more of it at the same time like swarms of bees, maybe we could even name it after them like bee, or worker, or drone, or something. that would be something, I tell ya!

it's almost like they're realizing they live on the same planet as all the poors

Moats, and with climate change being what it is? American alligators are about to be as common as chickens before too long.

The ultra rich have always done this, we just used to call them "castles".

Drones with explosives go vrrrr.

So many games have readied us for this.
