    If you are talking about nation state leaders, I’m struggling to think of one where they don’t just end up getting replaced with someone similar - Putin turning to magic dust doesn’t suddenly dismantle the structure that allows for a dictator, so another dictator will slide into the void. Same with Trump - American politics doesn’t stop being insane just cos he’s not around, and now that people know/think that a politician of his style can win, there will be a queue to cynical imitators ready to go.

    I’m less familiar with Indian politics, but I don’t think the BJP suddenly loses its power if Modi disappeared. Israel will still have it’s hard right nationalist core without Netanyahu. North Korea will find another Kim.

    I guess my thesis is “focus on systems, not people”
