It's hard to take seriously an article that is so heavily laden with hyperbolic prose. Like this from the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs:
"monocled, mustache-twirling oligarch", "secret control panel", "faceless", "takeover of Oz"
"fleeced", "skimmed", "self-enriching", "waging a class war", "bankrolling", "profiteering", "wage a war"
And on for every subsequent paragraph.
