I think you probably mean oligarchists suck.
OED defines:
oligarchy n. government, State governed, by small group of persons; members of such government.
The present oligarchy, whilst sharing totalitarian methodology with past and present examples of communist rule, does not share the Marxist theory of dialectic materialism and common ownership. Rather the cult of personality (guess whose) and meritocracy (some are born with enough merit to emerge into the country’s leadership, others attain it in time honored fashion) combine with a raw capitalism and a tacit deal with the proletariat that gives them material comforts in exchange for political quiescence.
