And has the additional advantage, of baffling everyone. Because this strategy had never been used before. And no one knows how to counter it. All those people, who are no longer people, can consider themselves very clever. They have won!
Let me return to their situation - what was it? It was a culture that did not like people. And the people rebelled, as a response to being treated this way. They did not understand what was going on, they only knew they didn't like it, whatever it was. And they did the easiest thing possible - they ceased to exist!
The result, was a nation that could not function. But this did not bother them, in the least. They got theirs, when the getting was good, and now everyone else will have to scramble for the scraps.
Bear in mind, that I am taking about a generation gap here. The older generation was successful, accumulated enough wealth to retire on. Their children do not have much of a future, but they are able to overlook this, quite easily.
Let me refer you to another article Why Realism explains the World, that has a different approach to this problem.
