      Also not true. These people have blood feuds and shootouts with each other mate. You can even see this playing out in real life on Xitter daily.

        Yet we see one of the most destructive judges of the SCOTUS being black and the leader of the German right wing extremist party AFD being a lesbian in a relationship with a woman of color. These are just 2 examples on the top of my mind.

        The guys on top are united by pure greed, the guys on bottom are united mostly by being brainwashed to perceive a common enemy.

          The guys at the top share class interests. That’s what unites them, not ideology. The ones at the top just say whatever needs to be said (whatever will benefit the plutocracy) to get to the top. But they’re not united at all. As soon as cracks appear, they turn on each other. I just don’t see this unity the OP is talking about. The problem is not that “evil is united”. The problem is that it’s too easy to propagandize vast amounts of the population when one controls the narrative through wealth and centralized media.
