In the 1870s, the term “robber baron” was first used to describe an exploitative class of industrialists who utilized their wealth to create monopolies of resources and amass control in the fledgling United States.

WEF and the CCP are the commies who plan to rule the serfs.
Precisely the reason for the 2A.
It is organizations like this that fire up the other end of the spectrum which is uglier and more vicious than they are and is not good for anyone AKA Hitler and the Nazi party
