That's a pretty different phenomenon that probably usually occurs much more slowly and not at the whim of a small number of powerful people/organizations.

No, it occurs at the whim of the people. I don't know the etymology of it, but I suspect that the "make-out" meaning of "embracer" in French was not a result of "powerful people/organizations" pushing it.
