There's all kinds of reasons for the crap they've been doing. State criminals find lots of ways to profit from it, and the temporary rulers in democracies naturally seek to import people they expect to vote for them or their coalition, that's kind of the main reason. It has the secondary effect of eroding the culture to some extent, if welfare schemes are in place, which are used to entice dependent slaves.

I think this is higher than state level criminals myself. Who knows!
Deep state? Master manipulators like Moriarty? I mean yeah that's basically what these guys are. To me it's all part of the state. Some of them are master manipulators and some are low level, practice demonic presences lol! They're all fodder to my DOOM skills though.
Let’s just say am not sure I believe families like Di medicis and rothschilds really did just kinda lose all their money and this is dynasty wars at a high level and very global. Maybe deep globe rather than deep state
That still falls under the definition of a state but yeah there are most definitely some old dynasties at play, I agree.
