Inspecting the model.
It doesn’t show the underground levels.
Yes it does. The Apex detachable.
So it is. It just goes down and down.
The whole campus is just aching to be destroyed. Don’t you think? These towers …
Who by? Who would destroy it?
I don’t know. The people who live outside it. Zombie hordes. Whatever.
There are campus shields. Designed to keep anyone we want out. They’re really just in case. They aren’t actually activated yet.
What are you so afraid of? You’re gearing up for some emergency. Or you’re going to bring it about – that emergency.
It’s supposed to be a stronghold, the campus. In case things go bad. A place of last resort. For whenever what happens out there, happens. We’ll be safe. Or the campus will be.
And then you can go into full organising and managing mode. Organise or euthanise, right?
We’re not actually evil.
What’s the threat that you’re dealing with? What’s the risk? What’s happening out there that the rest of us don’t know about? What do you know that we don’t? Have you made First Contact, or something? Are the magnetic poles about to shift?
These are angry times, philosopher. They’re planning for collapse, I know that. The billionaires. All the bigwigs, who fly in. They do all these tabletop simulations here. Like, what would happen in food production collapsed.
If they made food production collapse, you mean.
If we lost all the sources of energy.
If we blew up the pipelines, you mean.
If there was total financial wipeout.
Which there will be.
If there was nuclear war.
Which they’re trying to provoke.
All these apocalyptic scenarios.
Manufactured apocalypses. Very convenient.
Such a cynic.
What the Plaza for?: that’s what I want to know.
It’s a bit big, I suppose.
