The author chides the rich preppers for their cynicism, then spews lines like:
"Never before have our society’s most powerful players assumed that the primary impact of their own conquests would be to render the world itself unliveable for everyone else"
I can't help but roll my eyes. This is a very marxist take on how wealth is generated and I can't take this author at all seriously. I shouldn't have to say this, but the current state of affairs is not primarily due to rich people and is far more complicated. They display a third-grade level of it economics and are even more cynical than the people he chides.
They also use the "all men" dog whistle at the start of the article. The fact that the group is all male has no bearing on the rest of the story and I suspect was inserted to create a link between this type of behavior and men. When will this type of "journalism" die out? It has become tiresome and a primary reason I don't support rags like the guardian.
