Abigail Disney, the granddaughter to Roy O. Disney, who cofounded The Walt Disney Company, told CNBC on Thursday that she plans to withhold donations to the party she has funded for years until Biden drops out. The president has said he has no plans to withdraw from the race, despite calls for him to do so.
“I intend to stop any contributions to the party unless and until they replace Biden at the top of the ticket. This is realism, not disrespect. Biden is a good man and has served his country admirably, but the stakes are far too high,” Abigail Disney said in a lengthy statement to CNBC. “If Biden does not step down the Democrats will lose. Of that I am absolutely certain. The consequences for the loss will be genuinely dire.”
Not sure what article you’re reading, but this one didn’t seem to imply the reason for ceasing donations was being against oligarchy. So I’m not sure what point you’re making?
He’s making a strawman

Isn’t the push behind Biden “making the best of a bad system”? Which seems to be exactly the same sentiment behind “I don’t like the oligarchs but it’s useful that they agree with me.”

You think Biden is a legitimately good candidate and not just worth rallying behind to stop Trump?

That’s literally “making the best of a bad system”
You don’t like the choice you’re making, but you’re picking what you perceive as the “least bad”.

You think the US’s implementation of democracy that forces you to pick the least bad between two candidates you don’t like is
?
And that’s without getting started on the electoral college.
