Das Aufschlussreichste finde ich das Ende:

He said they were aware of the need to have armed guards to protect their bunkers –one had already lined up a dozen ex-Navy Seals to make their way to his compound once he gave the cue.

But they also wondered how they could keep the guards on their side – given that, in the event of a societal collapse, their money and even their cryptocurrency assets would all be pretty much worthless.

In order to stop the hired muscle simply dispatching their billionaire boss that they’ve been hired to protect, one of the rich men suggested they could keep the food behind combination locks as a disincentive for a revolt. Another suggested making their guards wear shock collars so they could be better controlled.

Rushkoff, though, suggested to them that - rather than focusing on weapons and access to food - the best approach to ensure they stayed on your side was to make the relationship a partnership rather than a transaction.

He suggested the billionaires work with their staff and start treating them like friends now in order to build loyalty and solidarity, and that would form the basis for a long term relationship where everyone looked out for each other.

Though, he said, that suggestion was met with a collective eye-roll from the billionaires.

Menschen wie Menschen zu behandeln oder sich selbst menschlich zu verhalten ist einfach überhaupt nicht vorstellbar für die.
