"Politicians like Starmer have unequivocally stated they serve the interests of the WEF over that of their country"

Well what he said was he'd rather be at Davos - not that he serves the WEF. I'd expect his reasoning would be exactly as I said - that its a place to network and plan with global partners in govts and business etc blah, we have global problems that need global solutions blah.

"they are largely just people doing things they genuinely believe in"

For what its worth I don't think these people (the sheep / normies / useful idiots) believe in anything at all. They simply follow the herd with varying degrees of awareness.

I find the following classification useful:

*Sheep* are those who follow the herd because they want an easy life - though they may well know its nonsense and say so.

*Normies* are those who follow the herd because they've convinced themselves they "believe" in the issue at hand. Of course they don't really believe it, it could be anything at all, but they are committed to professing that belief extravagantly. What they really believe is in the importance of following the herd - and in their deserving of high status in it.

But yeah nothing is real for them I think, except the herd. They will literally sacrifice their children in order to follow it.
