The political spectrum is fake bullshit made to divide the working class. The only ideology of the oligarchs is the acquisition of wealth, and they will assume any political persona in the pusuit of it.

Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.

George Orwell, 1984

The practical ethos of every authoritarian in history (including the self-styled "champions of the proletariat") is:

It's not just that I have a lot; it's that I must always have more than everyone else, and they must be compelled to desire this. Forever.
