But in the heart of capitalist empire, when people are convinced there’s no alternative system because “communism ebil”, it makes a kind of sense they’d turn to the latest tech development as a hope for escape.

Exactly! I think in the 'western' viewpoint it is all a zero-sum game which is where any of this makes any sense at all. That is highly unlikely to be the case imo though.
