Every dollar oligarchs take from Americans is invested in getting better at doing it. Not sure where that leaves us but I'm not excited about it.
Nah, Capitalism hasn't reached a revolt point yet.
At most, they will complain about it on platforms owned by these people, generating more engagement and profit for the people they claim to hate.
Refreshing Musk is not mentioned here. He says some stupid stuff but he has made his money actually making inovative products that move the world forward. So dumb to hear him talked about as an oligarch.

Plenty of others making their fortune through rent seeking means that could be focused on.

People love the oligarchs, they love their platforms their products their bullshit ideas - they dig it all up with a stupid smile. No revolts coming.
Many Americans have far too cushy lives to truly revolt. (The one exception being an Italian video game plumber.)
