It seems like this strategy requires pretty deeply influencing the worldview of many world leaders. That is obviously very difficult because no movement that I’m aware of has done it (at least, quickly), and I think they all would like to if they judged it doable.
It seems to me that in 2020 the world was changed relatively quickly. How many events in history was able to shift every mind on the planet within 3 months? If it only takes 3 months to occupy the majority of focus then you have a bounds for what a Super Intelligent Agent may plan for.
What is more concerning and also interesting is that such an intelligence can make something appear to be for X but it’s really planning for Y. So misdirection and ulterior motive is baked into this theory gaming. Unfortunately this can lead to a very schizophrenic inspection of every scenario as if strategically there is intention to trigger infinite regress on scrutiny.
When we’re dealing with these Hyperobjects/Avatars/Memes we can’t be certain that we understand the motive.
Given that we can’t understand the motive of any external meme, perhaps the only right path is to generate your own and propagate that solely?
