Illuminati, Fact or Fiction

What do you believe? The concept of all the worlds top people 'running' the world is a bit... far fetched, but i suppose it could work.

Fiction. Peoples actions are directed towards the fulfilment of thier own interests. Any apparent coordination or planning is emergent, and not necessarily intentional.

That the world’s “top people” (eg: the US President, VP and other Executive Branch staff, board chairpersons and CEOs of large corporations, etc.) is, I think, a given.

That these people may be more socially and practically related to one another than is common knowledge, seems likely, and is supported by evidence.

The notion that these obvious leaders/rulers are wittingly or unwittingly controlled by a secret society like “the Illuminati” seems farfetched.
