I don't know if he means oligarchs all over the world in control, or one big group of oligarchs in control of the whole world. I suppose it will go either way depending on the situation and arguments presented.
What gets me is the massively simplistic view of it. The denial of social revolutions throughout history having any change on things. It's the rich ruling the poor, oh, and also the rich wanting to kill the poor. If you broke down most ruling classes through history, then yes, it's the people who are in charge are well off, BUT why stop your investigation there? Why not delve deeper into the insanely complicated workings of social relations than Rich rules Poor (and also wants to genocide them)? Because it's easier, that's why. Because you can argue anything if you keep your base facts (PFFFTTT) vague enough.
