Would it be a stretch to say that people like Erdogan are in the international version of the petit bourgeoisie? Constantly trying to find a mystical third path between capitalism and socialism, or in this case between imperialism and true internationalism, which is not-so-secretly just fascism and getting merced by the next biggest fascists.

The UAE even has pretensions of supporting the third world if you talk to the right stans, who are all completely delusional and barely know what words mean. They want to wriggle out of the deal they locked themselves into. That's more like a health condition within the same entity that a polar opposite entity.

Dubai & Davos would already be delineated by the chudwoke axis within a framework that acknowledges this tug-of-war. They don't need their own for the memes.
