The techno royalty and entertainment royalty want all those “other people” off of their roads and beaches.
Water is their weapon.
Not sure if depopulation is their goal here when in the last 5 years of "drought crisis" Kali must have built at least 100,000 new homes.
That means multiple someones in city planning offices signed off those building permits.
I think it's all about control and perpetuating the crisis meme for that end.
