          The thing is that the environment they thrive in just isn’t sustainable.

          Food & water scarcity is going to really hurt in 20 years time.

          They know a climate apocalypse is coming, so they all have doomsday bunkers and shit. They see themselves as the future neo-feudal rulers of whatever remains.

          I saw someone here a while back refer to it as “Immortan Joe fantasies” if you’re familiar with Mad Max: Fury Road.
