"No! It's shadowy figures all the way down!"
It's a fair point to collapse the speculative hidden hand of the hidden hand, etc. down into a singular conception, absent a reason to believe otherwise.
But doesn't your first argument about disposable faces suggest a reason to believe that the controllers would want to keep their faces hidden, to minimize potential disposability?
We're talking about specific groups and people here, and it's seeping into the zeitgeist…

Stop spreading rumours about my girlfriend!
Nicole's just got to sort out some inheritance/banking stuff, and then she's going to immigrate and we'll get married. -

It's interesting to frame this this as "the safety and security of your children", as valuing the safety and security of their children is a common justification from gun owners. -

At least you've admitted that the "good standard of living" you want is just your preference. It's certainly not objective or universal. -

Many estimations of a "good standard of living" include the right to (and means of) self defense -

Even if a Trump Golden Dome™ protected the US from such fallout, what do they expect from Trump? A stern lecture? Threats? Noogies?
It's odd to frame vague complements and avoiding personal, public criticisms as being a "cock-holster" or whatever slur's en vogue these day -

"Now, I think things have gotten so bad inside [Gaza], from the standpoint of the [Gazan] people, my belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators… our purpose there is… to stand up a government that’s representative of the [Gazan] people, hopefully democratic due respect for human rights… a major commitment by the US, but… worth making. And we don’t have the option anymore of simply laying back
and hoping that events in [Gaza] will not constitute a threat to the U.S." -

What are you guys talking about? The Punisher repented, got rid of his guns, and then committed suicide. And his wife really hated him all along. -

Three times, in the official statistics. Given that the police and courts will ignore organized child-rape gangs for years, the real number is probably much higher. -
