Clock runs out on the World Economic Forum?

The World Economic Forum just ended its 2024 confab in Davos yesterday, and the distinct impression I get is that it has "jumped the shark."

One thing that encouraged me in this belief was Javier Milei's talk there, where he told them they're a big part of the problem and run counter to any solution.

Milei's main point is that economic freedom, as exercised through capitalist endeavors, is demonstrably best for the welfare of the greater portion of humanity. The market through which a capitalist system operates is intrinsically fairer than a system wherein economic directions are coercive. Argentina's history was much of his reference, and he made it clear that the collectivist bent of the WEF is counter-beneficial and socialistic.

Another bright spot was Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts' talk about what to expect if a Republican wins the 2024 election.

So, are the mass of WEF invitees really fooled, or do they somehow see an all-controlling authoritarian government as the best way? They are not, I think, fooled - they genuinely think themselves part of the "anointed" vanguard of the proletariat, and they're happy to be recognized as influential. And, to an outsider, it seems there has generally been little dissent amongst the crowd at Davos. They'll just go along with what the Chief Wizard Klaus Schwab tells the rest of us is good for us.

Aside from all that, while I've seen much WEF-related anxiety noted, it's always long apparent to me that they never possessed nor described any viable way to bring such varied cultures as the LGBTQ contingent, the rather radical ISIS contingent, and all others extant under their control.

UPDATE

After I posted this I came across this article in the left-leaning Politico:

Populism Keeps Rattling the Globe. Elites Have No Idea What to Do.

DAVOS, Switzerland — For more than a decade, forces on the ideological extremes have torn at the global political fabric. And for just as long, the luminaries at the World Economic Forum have fretted about how dangerous that phenomenon is — for the businesses they lead and the countries they govern.

But years into the transnational struggle with resurgent populism, the corporate leaders in Davos appear to have no serious solutions.

And an unrelated thought from out of left field: if a biological woman desires breast augmentation, is that considered gender-affirming care?
