Unless eugenicist and Malthusian fantasies via Marxist and Maoist strategies inhabit the fevered minds of rich and powerful elites everywhere (perfectly plausible to me - perhaps a default delusion/derangement induced by extreme and excessive privilege?), regardless of whether they wear black or white hats, one has to hope that common decency, humanity and a desire to do good will ultimately transcend the urge to be a narcissistic, megalomaniac psychopath.
