In the olden of days of conspiracy theories, the Birchers claimed that western billionaires were the ones that were behind the communist revolution in Russia. I didn't buy it at the time. Seemed to me the Russians were committed to it without the help of billionaires.
But now . . . Wow. We're seeing now what they said happened a hundred years ago. The truly powerful, the top of the capitalist class, are the ones pushing communism to launch their own revolution against republicanism. It creates a religion and moral code out of thin air and at the same time recruits dumbass, zealous progressives as foot soldiers.
