It's best to treat the ruling class as a theocracy more than an oligarchy. I see it like the ruling class trying to attain minimum viable stability (not complete collapse) while maximally expanding their religious authority.

Mine as well but I think of them as an religiously-driven egregore rather than as any historically known theocracy - certainly not a run of the mill oligarchy.

There's no summary of Derrida because he's obfuscating and saying nothing of substance. There's no condensation of Moldbug because he's saying things that are incompressible. He makes a lot of points and gives evidence for them.

If you want his philosophy compressed into a tweet it's: <Government quality is what's important and follows from form and the democratic form is doomed to disaster.> Many words needed to be spent explaining why the US was rich and powerful which seemed to disprove this view.

That's the proscriptive part - a summary of the descriptive part: <Governments drift left and only move right all at once> This is "Cthulu may swim slowly but he always swims left." Many words are used explaining why, demonstrating it and arguing against counter-examples

Your simplistic version is spot on - good human capital can even make bad government forms look good ... for a a while (until the feedback loops destroy human capital, too).
