Soros; Klaus Schwab; Larry Fink; the old banking families; the invisible moneyed powerbrokers.

I can think of a few MDPs of this past century in America who more than deserve to be on this list.

For example: Walter Cronkite, since he was moreorless a major factor in why we lost Vietnam with his fraudulent reporting, and aside from that, he also may have illicitly convinced RFK to run for President against journalistic neutrality. In fact, that last bit may have been part of the reason the MSM believed themselves to be kingmakers.

Then there’s Walter Duranty, probably the guy who helped bring unchecked Fake News into existence thanks to him burying the Holodomor at Stalin’s behest. And as further proof of this, even when they KNEW by now that he buried it, they still kept his award intact.

Walter Lippmann arguably was the reason we even HAVE the problems in MSM, so he definitely is a top contender.

And let’s not forget George Lucas: His Star Wars films actually helped beat into people the idea that we should never, EVER use strength even to help others (Richard Nixon made that clear in the preface to his book No More Vietnams), and his Edutopia actually was likely to have been FAR more pervasive in having kids turn out to be socialistic morons bereft of any true knowledge than Randy Weingarten could ever dream of.

Oh yeah, and also Howard Zinn, whose half-rate textbook is mandatory reading in classrooms and most likely massively contributed to kids hating America.
