Petroligarchs

Fossil-fuel fascist assholes who stymie climate legislation and take nightly baths in cash
Science researcher Tyler woke up one morning, popped open his laptop and started reading more headlines about global climate emergency and how massive storms will become more deadly. "We keep burning fossil fuel like it's just everyday fucking life," Tyler thought. "Meanwhile these Petroligarchs keep buying politicians and lobby for more oil wells in sensitive ocean areas when we should be changing over to clean energy right fucking now." Tyler switched browser tab to Greenpeace.com and felt better.

broligarch 

A portmanteau of "bro" and "oligarch". A broligarch refers to an ultra-wealthy man who uses his fortune and status to sway government policies, political agendas, and cultural narratives.

Broligarchs are often characterized by their bro culture and sneakers-with-suits vibes. Despite their laid-back image, they operate as political kingmakers, funding campaigns, lobbying, and shaping laws that align with their own interests. One minute they're posting memes, the next they're deciding tax policy.

In many parts of the world this would be considered corruption. In the US? It's just business as usual.
Ever since Elon Musk started throwing cash at Trump, he’s become the textbook definition of a broligarch — even scoring his own fake-ish government department to play with, while his companies are raking in billions in taxpayer money.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
