Their ability to marshall and direct change is what offers some hope as the West private-property-rights itself into a unlivable rictus. The last words ever spoken by a Westerner will be "Mine!" while clutching to some scrap of barren hellrock, gifted to him by some generational wealth that hasn't seen labour in decades.

Maybe they asked themselves "What would YOU do with significant top-down control over a major world economy?" and the answer was far darker than "corner the market in fast-growing greentech?"
