It appears when pluralism is going the way of workers and minority rights, Oligarchs panic and start funding lame brain despots with hare brained politics of hate and division to undermine popular empowerment for wages and conditions and social wages in the form of government services and welfare. Authoritarians simply hold the fort for Oligarchs and the economy tanks by aggregate demand deficits from social spending cuts and shift to war industries, with low or no multiplier effects. The Oligarchs hold their ground but the entire economy goes into reverse growth and life is devalued by hate politics., resulting in mass deportations, then mass slaughter of scapegoated soft target minorities as the economy slides further into stagnation and popular disaffection and dissatisfaction at ruling authoritarian, due to economic mismanagement.
