I think in their view the world is actually a very orderly, hierarchical place. All "their" money is literally sitting in a bank vault with their name on it, there are people "really in charge," and there is an honest-to-god plan that the world is following.
It's a lot nicer than the chaotic shitfest we live where the only rules are what you can convince other people the rules are.
I'm actually almost impressed that it cites the Lord Mansfield decision of 1772, which effectively abolished slavery throughout the British Empire, and was foundational to the American Abolition movement. It makes a weird kind of sense.
Then again, are they saying they're not beholden to the US government because they're still working under imperial law? 🤔
