The leaders either don't have a voice because they aren't PC or they are keeping their heads down so as to avoid getting it chopped off.

My thoughts exactly. Look what they did to Edward Liddy. Why on Earth would anyone with any talent want to become a public leader in this environment? The public is angry, now is not the time to speak up if you're a banker or an industrialist.

They can run, but they cannot hide from the Auto da Fe. Wherever they are, they will be found and they will suffer the Wrath of God at the hands of the people they enslaved. They will be no more, they will be wiped of the face of the earth forever.

Why do you need leaders? Would you do something differently if there were a "leader" telling you to do it?

The "leaders", realizing no one was going to follow, left for the mountains 30 years ago.
