You are not wrong. It's not even a theory.

Studies have shown that most corporate CEOs exhibit many psychopathic tendencies. It's how they are able to rise to the top, they don't give a fuck about anyone else, so it doesn't get in the way.

Then they use the money from those positions of power to try and manipulate whatever sociopolitical ends they want. They buy media companies to manipulate what narratives are told to the public, and how certain situations are covered, spun, or ignored entirely. They use those companies to create artificial campaigns turning certain groups against each other as distractions. If people are arguing about "small" things, they don't have time to notice the big things being done.
