The interest of rich people on longtermism reminds me of:
- attributing monarchy to an alleged divine will;
- authoritarian bureaucracies crushing the people in the name of the greater good while firmly attaching themselves to power

Yes, it's handwaving to try and justify unrestrained accumulation and use of power.
