A good ancestor takes on the set of problems that they can have the greatest impact in solving. If today there is an opportunity to prevent a global technocracy from taking power, we must tackle that problem, as future generations will not be likely to have a chance to overthrow such a powerful entity. If a future generation will have an equal chance of solving a certain problem, and delaying the solving of the problem doesn’t cause immense suffering, it is not the ancestor’s most pressing problem to solve.
