"The interplay within and between different physical and social systems ... are often only poorly understood. This leads to large and growing uncertainty estimates and a wide range of incompletely understood and underestimated risks. For example, the potential for climate change impacts to drive social discontent, dislocation and relocation, and instability and conflict, are all deeply uncertain, but potentially crippling."

they have the means and are not afraid to take the capitalists down. they have take down exploitative industries already, like the private lectures industry, crypto, jailed for many years some capitalists, and so on... but of course they will not do that to an extent to destroy their own economy; that would not help them to achieve 1st place superpower taking US position.
