I'm not limiting the oligarchy to EA folks, there is also the Epstein class, wall street, old money, and more

I'm not denying that there's a shadowy ruling elite cabal of influential billionaires in the US, but if any of them are members of the rationalist community, they're certainly not influential within it. Maybe Elon lurks on lesswrong and posts stuff under a pseudonym or something, it's certainly possible, but doing that doesn't make someone a ruler of the group.
