Where did all of the Anglo leaders and upper class go in the west? Unz had an article quite a while back saying they died out. Moldbug claimed they got absorbed into the modern culture. Did they get pushed out, did they bend the knee, did they die off, what happened to the families and people who used to run the Anglosphere?

Driven out for not being progressive enough. Look at Churchill, 70 years ago.
That’s one hell of a long “...go broke” swing of the pendulum. Still as accurate as ever though.
Britain has never recovered and only slowly declined.
Until recently, where they've quickly declined.
Dude, Britain prior to Thatcher and after Churchill wasn't exactly "slow" decline, it was probably the most starting collapse of an empire anyone had ever seen.
In 1940 they went from a world spanning empire that had some of the largest and most powerful forces in the world, with the wealthiest society, and only recently being challenged by the US ...
To 1960 where not only was trash over-flowing in the streets, perpetual riots in Wales, a communist-nationalist insurgency in Northern Ireland, a total evaporation of that empire, and socialist policies so bad that morgues were over-flowing with bodies and being placed outside to rot in the street because the morgue-workers union was striking.
Rome had a slower collapse.
Fuck, the Assyrians had a slower collapse.
Hell, Macedon had a less destructive collapse, at least.
Considering how quickly the sheep accepted it, nah, they've just become more open about it.
