The one term that you also did not use because they aren't is "populists". There are things we can admire about these technocrats because of their drive and ability to get things done, create industries, wealth and invention. But they could do nothing without people who can build, turn wrenches, weld, and assemble. Without us, they would just be dreamers, and perhaps, science fiction writers. I think they harbor plans for AI and robots because they believe it could give them the ability to accomplish things without people to turn those wrenches. To make their spaceships go to Mars. No longer would they need to be mere globalists, they could become solar systemists, then tomorrow the stars. 1st Star Trek then the Borg collective, but they will always have Klingons to fight.
