Davos - where 1,500 private jets deliver elites to a Swiss ski resort to “solve” problems they created.
The Theater: $60,000 tickets. Armed guards keeping citizens away. CEOs who laid off thousands discussing “inclusive growth.” Hedge fund managers who crashed economies lecturing on sustainability. Champagne receptions about inequality in $1,000/night chalets.
They’re not solving problems - they’re performing concern while protecting the exact system that made them rich.
The Product: Not solutions - absolution. Klaus Schwab promising “great resets” that reset nothing. ESG scores and DEI pledges as corporate indulgences. Entire consulting industries monetizing “impact” that impacts only their bottom lines.
WEF makes $400M yearly selling what elite skufs crave: moral superiority without sacrifice. Talk about helping the poor while your company exploits them. Discuss climate while your jet idles.
The System: Real change threatens their position, so they offer simulation. Public-private partnerships that privatize profits, socialize losses. “Stakeholder capitalism” means corporations define what’s good for society - no elections needed.
The conspiracy isn’t secret meetings. It’s open alignment of interests that nobody needs to coordinate. Professional skufs whose job is looking concerned while preserving their empires.
When did paying a quarter million to attend panels become substitute for actually fixing the problems your wealth created?
