I think there are seven main types of oligarch here. One is tycoons, one is teachers, one is infotainment specialists, one is think tankers, one is philanthropy agents, one is government officials / lawyers, and one is clergy. Of these, only one, tycoons, really amasses a fortune in money. The others live off crumbs and donations from fortunes made by others, extortion and taxation on those fortunes, or confiscation of those fortunes by currency inflation and false arrest. All seven, however, work in concert because they share a common objective of owning and / or controlling the lives of everyone else from conception to death, which they want to occur upon their decision.
So when we speak of oligarchs running things right now and aiming to run more soon, then even more, we reference these seven instrumentalists, under CIA’s baton, beguiling and compelling to submission men and their nations, then mining that health and wealth for oligarchs’ profit and pleasure. Tycoons get richer and philanthropies and hedge funds snap up ever more properties when pandemics they order up, and gene-modifying palliatives they order out, subdue the morale and intelligence of men and nations.
And there is an hierarchy of reach and ability to affect among these oligarchs. Tycoons have the most money but the least affective ability. Economics, about which tycoons have much to say, is down stream in affective-ness from both culture and politics. Teachers, infotainment specialists, and think tankers are up stream from tycoons in that regard. Philanthropy agents, given their monies and historic ties to academe, are up stream from teachers, infotainment specialists, and think tankers. Government officials / lawyers, given their ability to tax at the point of a gun and shoot marks sue on behalf of clients, are up stream from philanthropy agents. And clergy are up stream from them all.
The most affective oligarchs are clergy.
Think about that.
Oligarchs operate from inside and out through phalanxes of bureaucrats operating mechanisms of government. Bureaucrats, whom oligarchs manage to pay, flatter, and bribe enough to keep at their jobs, protect oligarchs from contact with regular citizens and from adjudication of their activities.
The whole comprises, as mentioned, a sort of orchestra for de-growth, death, and looting of civilizations — especially of nations — and the birth, as today’s oligarchs would have it, of trans-human formations such as might tickle oligarchs’ fancies, until they don’t. Oligarchs have in mind turning planet earth into their own private experimental laboratory for making things that bring them fun and fortune and expand their control of human affairs, even solar system affairs if they can swing it.
The “vaccine passport” is a personal Digital ID, to be implanted at birth, that can be used to cut a person off not only from social media but also from food, clothing, shelter, banking, medical attention, procreation, and life altogether. Today’s social media de-platforming is pre-testing ahead of mandated Digital ID for total population control. Oligarchs and their bureaucratic phalanxes are dizzy imagining delicious opportunities for sex and self-aggrandizement attending deployment of Digital IDs.
Inject foreign and criminal elements into private property neighborhood to drive owners off their properties in despair and desperation. Want a piece of property? Send their neighborhood foreigners and criminals, then use their Digital ID to force the owners into bankruptcy and penury, or, just eliminate them straight up. Collect the properties. Turn everyone outside the oligarchy core and their bureaucratic phalanx (technocratic, scientific experts) into renters having to beg for anything they need just to survive. This is called shorting civilizations, and nations too. There is profit in pain, others’ pain.
These guys think big. Thus their labors to reset and de-grow the economies of nations. George Soros has been doing it for years. Oligarchs get to own the left-overs — the important parts, THE LAND — at bargain prices. No more nations, just strictly managed regional economies being actually just one global economy, with about 20% of current global population allowed to live. This scenario oligarchs deem sustainability. Abortion any time from conception to whenever oligarchs, behind their phalanx of technocrats, want you gone.
They never see you. They never feel you or feel as you do. They are impervious to sympathy. You are just a statistic, a Digital ID inside big data runs they do for self-aggrandizement, which they rationalize as sustainability. No more human than that.
Marx would be furious with these rakshasas. Even Lenin and Stalin would scratch their heads wondering how they think they can get away with it. These oligarchs and their technocratic phalanx are Fascists, not Communists.
They don’t need governments, only their own governance, and that total-globe: in, over, under, around, and through economics, no nations, only economics.
The people did not ask for this.
Christianity does not allow the premise on which oligarchy stands: that some are worthy of their embodied creature-hood and others are not, and that their relative abilities to affect human affairs distinguishes one from the other. The more you can compel behavior of others, the more you are an oligarch, or at least potentially one of their minions. So the thinking goes. Such is the premise.
Christianity does not allow this premise. Neither, graced as it is with Christian premises, does the Constitution of The United States of America. One rather expects oligarchs and their minions to despise Christianity and The US Constitution. Neither abides the premise of their chosen career.
Christianity’s inherent ecumenicity resides in the title of the Anglican Liturgy: The Book of Common Prayer. The key word in there is Common. Everyone alike, rich man and poor, man, woman, and child, commoner and titled, no matter their nationality, no matter even their religion, stands before God equally as his Playmate and Child, His Dearly Beloved, in adoration, penance, supplication, contemplation, humility, and gratitude. This absolute ecumenicity of Christianity’s core presence reflects the absolute identity of God in all that is, as all that is, and much, much more besides. All is He, good and bad, worthy and unworthy, all.
Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, wrote and compiled The Book of Common Prayer. He was executed by oligarchs who claimed to be in service of Christianity. They were in service of their careers and Queen.

The tongue is the armour of the heart; it guards one’s life. Loud talk, long talk, wild talk, talk full of anger and hate – all these affect the health of man. They breed anger and hate in others; they wound, they excite, they enrage, and they estrange. Why is silence said to be golden? The silent man has no enemies, though he may not have friends. He has the leisure and the chance to dive within himself and examine his own faults and failings. He has no more inclination to seek them in others. If your foot slips, you earn a fracture; if your tongue slips, you fracture someone’s faith or joy. That fracture can never be set right; that wound will fester forever. Therefore, use the tongue with great care. The softer you talk, the less you talk, and the sweeter you talk – the better for you and the world.
