What Am I Missing?

Tech billionaires seem hard set on crashing the economy. Like hard. Like "worst economic crash in US history x1000" bad.
They are building data centers that are unsustainable, both from a financial sense and from an ecological sense.
That isn't an opinion, it's reality.
It's so insane and freakishly bizarre that even normal people, with a 6th grade reading level and 3rd grade math skills, can see the math ain't mathing.

Let's add in this insane warmongering by Republicans that literally ran on isolationism and "no more forever wars" but now support every insane thing Mango Mussolini says: Invade Venezuela? "Hell yeah!" Republicans say. Invade Cuba? "Hell yes!" Republicans say. Invade Mexico? "Let's do it" Republicans say. Invade Greenland? "It's all good" they shout.
The rationale is bonkers. The 180 from maga is enough to give whiplash.
Plus these people are not playing. The EU, China, Mexico and even Canada, have basically threatened war if we actually do any that stuff.
Yet, this government keeps pushing forward.

Republicans in Congress have completely abdicated all accountability or oversight of this administration. They are literally throwing away the election to appease Mango Mussolini.

To be completely blunt it all makes no sense. I spent hours digging through stuff and I can make no logical deductions from any of this. It's completely nonsensical. Self destructive. Pointless.
Sure, there are some short term monetary gains but it's unsustainable and destructive.
You can't say you want more babies to be born while also fomenting WWIII, an economic collapse that will permanently break our economy as we know it and an ecological disaster all at the same time.
I feel like I'm going mad. None of this makes sense. The only conclusion I come to is that they are trying to depopulate the Earth, not increase its population. The population was already declining and all of this is like "this isn't happening fast enough, let's put this into 5th gear". That is the only logical analysis I can come up with.
It's a death cult. They are destroying tht Earth and it's population, on purpose.

If I'm wrong, tell me so. I would love to be wrong.

I was skeptical until I recently watched a movie which had to have been written and produced by the mindset.

Chilling.

Nothing makes any sense because it’s not meant to being all smoke and mirrors. Everything is under the control of extreme extroverted psychopaths and opportunists. Who have been given everything they have ever dreamed of looking for the next infinite thrill in a finite world.
