My interpretation is that he’s trying to fit in with the rest of the billionaire class, which is almost entirely on board with Republicanism.

    It will be very hard to exterminate humanity but climate change could make a pretty good try by collapsing ocean food chains or instigating a methane clathrate gun effect. Even if those don’t come to pass, the global south is gonna be fucked - maybe instigate-global-ecoterrorism kind of fucked.

      Humanity will suffer massive population decline for sure, but we have spent thousands of years living in deserts and artic conditions so species survival is pretty much guaranteed no matter how terrible it gets.

      It is unlikely that modern technology will be retained though. Just too many interconnected parts spread across continents to survive a mass population decline.
