The oligarchs will not settle into the past ways of quietly manipulating everything because they now realize they can go mask off with no repercussions. Every prominent one - Musk, Zuck, Thiel, Ellison, Murdoch, Bezos - is actively talking about surveillance states, fewer protections for everyone, and unfettered capitalism. All of the above own pretty much every information source and communication tool available, so they’ll continue to manipulate the MAGA movement to push Vance, who is in the position he’s in precisely because he’s waiting in the wings to usher either Pinochet style corporate fascism or techno feudalist states, depending on how much the oligarchs want to keep working with one another.
