The Perfect Capitalist Organization

The Wagner Group is starting to make a real name for itself. Combining all the elements of capitalist success; violence, public relations and crisis exploitation, it is finding fertile ground in what is called "the periphery", those countries used as resource colonies by The West. Wagner is the Mafia 2.0., a super-cartel, making money the old-fashioned way, with intimidation and corruption. This is the logical endpoint of capitalism, stripped of its veneer of "democracy". A mask we in the "advanced economies" cling to as though our souls depended on it. We settle our issues by voting while the backward, savage "Third World" is filled with killing fields. Of course it is thanks to all that blood that cheap minerals and calories keep coming to our shores, filling our market shelves and maintaining our Christian "way of life". And "groups" like Wagner make it all happen. With unlimited funding for paramilitaries and social media networks, they are a post-post-modern supplement to the old imperialism. Those supply chains stay open without getting all that blood on your hands. Just contract it out to "specialists". The "free market" has always required enforcement to keep wealth flowing upwards and for a certain price, Wagner is happy to oblige.
