You have to think of it more like the opening credits of The Brady Bunch (if you're old enough to remember):
Here's the story of the Leftist Permanent Revolution, which after various disasters and divorces retreated to American academia, where they gradually honed 2 generations of commissars armed with dogma and jargon designed around empowering The Marginalized (basically any poss historical victims), with the goal of undoing European capitalist democracy and replacing it with "socialist liberation", which of course would be overseen by Leftist philosopher kings and their minions;
Here's the story of global capitalism, which is an omnivorous perpetual-motion machine, and in the last generation has decided that nation states and their citizens are an impediment to power and profits, and thus it would be for the best if they owned the entire planet and did away with borders, citizens, rights, democracy etc...
And one day, after a bad Orange Man scared them both to death, they jumped into each other's arms and decided to get married.
Or, more simply, global capitalism and global progressivism have become a Church/State ruling alliance, and one partner wants all our loot and one partner wants all our brains.
Actually, Clever, both parties want our loot, and one of those parties wants, rather than our brains, for us to simply stop using said brains. We appear to be well on the way to satisfying both!
