I think they have lost faith in humanity. That's why they are looking for ways out. They consider themselves superior to others and do not trust nations can work as a team to get out of the problems we face as humanity.
They think this way because their whole business is built around people's baser impulses. They create algorithms, and web pages that are like slot machines, that make people become zombies and consume non-stop.
This kind of business made them immensely rich, and for them, it is proof that if an average person is given the choice between saving the world or making a video for TitkTok while unboxing their new Ipad, and eating pizza, they will choose to eat the latter.
In Spain, we say the thief believes that everyone is like him.
But they are wrong because they created those pages and that advertising that drives us to consume like drug addicts. Therefore they created the problem. And now they just want to run away.
