Oh wait, the would-be clever title is (was) not from The Onion but from POLITICO:

Seeing that I had a laugh and thought I would find some funny political satire and maybe something insightful. I thought they meant Davos Man had no plan to stop his own political extremism.

Wait a minute... https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/01/20/davos-populism-political-extremism-column-00136618

The title seems to have changed to "Populism Keeps Rattling the Globe. Elites Have No Idea What to Do." and continues on to lament that our self-appointed corporate masters are inept at politics. That might actually be a good thing when you think about it, no? Not to mention the irony of the pot calling the kettle black in terms of political extremism.

Thanks for a useless, relatively uncritical article, Nahal Toosi. I can't help but notice you're embedded in Davos, and perhaps journalists with more of a critical backbone have already been filtered from covering it. Whatever you have to write (or not write) to keep your job, right?
