The answer to that question relies on the answer to another. Was the Civil War profitable? A lot of rights for minorities and women spawned from that, so if it makes sense for the wealthy to have that war, it makes sense that it could have been driven by that.
But...I think it's more likely that this is a bunch of independent actors than one conspiracy of a select few. The rebellious teen on twitter is doing what she wants, influenced by hundreds of people she's interacted with...each of whom are no different than you or me. So how'd the rich guys do it? Advertising messages maybe? Idk, but I find it hard to believe that this is a master plan
