The poles wander and they have also flipped.



True polar wander creates massive Tsunamis, earthquakes, land formational changes... all kinds of hell. And there is a mountain, pun intended, of evidence this has happened numerous times.

If the poles flip no place will be safe. Mountain ranges? They'll be hit with devastating earthquakes.



The rough idea is that if we are 5-6k feet above sea level we may survive phase 1. 600 mph tsunamis that will resurface and salt the entire land mass below. Colorado and their peaks would be actually a fairly safe place for the first step.

Some mountain ranges, under some models, would suggest the western South American coast would provide safety for phase 1 as well. After all I have seen, I'd prefer to bunk up in Colorado. Then move north and east (as we know north and east, not the NEW north and east)... so think Maine / Canada to avoid frozen climate... as the equator will have moved.

There's not much hope in any scenario, really. Historically, about 5-10% of us survive at all.

I think wealthy elitists are figuring nukes are fixing to start flying and they want to be as far away as possible

Peter Thiel is quietly relocating to Argentina.

The billionaire tech investor has decamped from Los Angeles and Miami to Buenos Aires, where he's purchased a mansion in one of the city's most exclusive neighborhoods, enrolled his children in local schools, and is meeting regularly with President Javier Milei.

This is Thiel's third "backup country," he received New Zealand citizenship in 2011 and applied for a Malta passport in 2022. Now Argentina is becoming his primary hedge against the United States.

His stated motivations: concerns about California's proposed 5% billionaire wealth tax, worries about the direction of the U.S., and the risk of nuclear war or runaway AI. Argentina, geographically insulated from Northern Hemisphere conflicts, fits the profile.

But Thiel has also found ideological alignment with Milei's libertarian slash-and-burn governance including deregulation, government spending cuts, aversion to taxes and "wokeness." The two met in person in 2024 (brokered by the tech entrepreneur who founded OLX, which Thiel's VC firm funded). Since arriving in April, Thiel has dined with Milei's deregulation minister, met with the economy minister, and spent time at the presidential house discussing how to ensure libertarianism survives beyond Milei's term.

Milei's cabinet chief said last month: "All billionaires of the world who want to flee countries increasingly regulated, with higher taxes and governments that persecute their citizens, are welcome in the Argentine republic, the new land of freedom."

The Argentine government is exploring offering Thiel permanent residence or citizenship through a new "golden passport" program for large investors.

Thiel has also purchased land in neighboring Uruguay near Punta del Este. Some observers speculate it could include a nuclear bunker.

This reflects a larger strategy. Thiel co-funded Próspera, a $120 million "charter city" in Honduras with its own laws, courts, and tax system. When Honduras's government tried to shut it down as a sovereignty violation, Próspera sued for $10 billion. Trump then pardoned the former Honduran president who created the ZEDE framework, forced Honduras to elect a puppet leader, and Próspera is now expanding with a new U.S. military base on the island.

Thiel isn't just seeking personal refuge, he's building an archipelago of private governance zones across the hemisphere in places where billionaires can operate outside state jurisdiction. Argentina is the latest addition.

Find the nearest location to the subterranean tunnels. The nearest one to my location, supposedly, is in Jay, Oklahoma.

Thiel is a degenerate homosexual. Good riddance.

Solid plausibility. Still, I think Israel is dictating that.. and I don't think they want the Greater Israel project to suffer for that.

NO.... no no. I mean, there's something to be said for a quick death, though.

Absolutely yes. The tunnel network I speak of is water tight. They've been there for a very, very long time.

If it's air tight, how will you breathe? How will you eat? You need to think UP, not down. Believe me. Still, what comes after is essentially as unsurvivable anyway. Suit yourself!

I think Pakistan is making it known they don't care what Israel thinks


and Pakistan has nukes, and there's speculation they may loan some to Iran

I’ll take the same approach as I always have with “climate change”.

Whenever/if we start seeing numerous reports and numbers of “connected insider-type people” with the means to pick up and almost immediately be high-tailing it to higher ground, then I’ll start to wonder what’s up.

I think I would be more concerned for Argentina's economic future before the US future. Argentina is a very gay friendly country and Thiel is a gay man. I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't buying up land there in large swaths

There have been signs indicating it could be beginning to happen. The problem is, nobody knows what the process looks like or how long it takes. We are talking about 450,000 year cycles here. This pole meandering stuff we are seeing now could continue on like this for a thousand years before anything happens for all we know.

6000-12000 cycles for the stuff I am referencing. Much tighter intervals.

Some of the most convincing stuff I have read surrounds the pyramids, and the clear gate keeping of Gobleki Tepe.

Remember the story about Bush purchasing land over the Guarani Aquifer? " one of the largest freshwater reserves on Earth" There is clean fresh water there and it's a possibility that it will become more expensive and scarce here in the US via drought and some aquifers drying up. Will ai data centers cause even more of a problem in the future?

quote:

More than half of all aquifers in the United States are currently losing water, primarily due to relentless, unchecked pumping by industrial agriculture and expanding urban development. This over-extraction is causing wells to run dry, rivers to diminish, and the ground above to physically sink and crack.


AI

There is no credible evidence that the Bush family owns land in Argentina. While business dealings involving the Bush family have taken place in the country, the well-known, widely circulated rumors regarding the family buying vast South American estates actually concern neighboring Paraguay.

The primary origins of these claims include:The Paraguayan Land Rumors: In 2006, prominent South American media and local Paraguayan politicians circulated unverified reports that former President George H. W. Bush or George W. Bush purchased a massive 100,000-acre to 175,000-acre ranch in the Chaco region of Paraguay.

The Guarani Aquifer Conspiracy: Reports tied this alleged Paraguayan land purchase to the Guarani Aquifer, one of the largest freshwater reserves on Earth. Activists and regional commentators, such as Argentina's undersecretary for Land for Social Habitat at the time, expressed concern about foreign control of local resources.

Are you serious? Argentina is the only place on the planet that's safe if the poles flip once every 750,000 years and it takes 1,000 - 10,000 years to happen?
