The neo tyrants have learned from the days of old. The fact that there are billions of people who believe they are free and are not being control should serve as a testament to the elite. I personally see no counter part or true opposition yet, as we all wonder around in the dark fighting amongst ourselves. Which by the way is an old saying that should explain much. "Divide and conquer".

I think if their truly is an organized over arching ruling elite or enlightened persons group then their control would be directly contested quite easily by the people they seek to rule. I think perhaps the reason we do not see a counterpoint to the illuminati is because it doesn't know its the counterpoint. there are billions of us and only a small percentage of those billions would be in the enlightened ranks. The counterpoint then I would argue is everyone else. There is no organized way to fight it because they (theoretically) control all. They would use the media to distract us and demonize an organized counter point like we see in the world today. Perhaps the irony is they are quite aware who the counterpoint is and thus manage the wars and scandals as a two fold program. On one hand it makes them money and on the other is keeps us divided and our focus elsewhere.
Tyrants everywhere make their own enemies so to find the counterpoint I would imagine we should look to those they try hardest to subdue.
Interesting discussion OP
Cheers
