Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

"An opulent $300 million doomsday bunker complex, to protect ultrarich clients from disasters, has been unveiled by protective design specialists.

Set to open in 2026, a Virginia-based company called Strategically Armored & Fortified Environments (SAFE) says the bunkers will house 625 people, at up to $20 million per "project Aerie" unit.

Newsweek has reached out to SAFE outside of normal working hours via email for comment.

Why It Matters The vast majority of U.S. citizens do not have access to a nuclear fallout bunker or the means to build one. Relatively few people will be allowed into Government bunkers, which are intended for continuity of government operations. Billionaire wealth surged by $2 trillion in 2024—equivalent to $5.7 billion per day—as global inequality reached unprecedented levels, according to a report from Oxfam International.

What To Know The Aerie project, which is named after the resting place for birds of prey, will offer a network of luxurious residential bunkers across 50 U.S. cities, with 1,000 affiliate locations planned worldwide.

According to their website the facilities will "provide robust defense against the most severe threats, including nuclear fallout and electromagnetic pulses."

The company has been commended for their creation of many different kinds of bunkers, including one which came complete with a Formula 1 track. "
