Cabbage Patch

Good way to dodge the question.
Not really. I think he's talking about some 1984 type shyt, but more brassy. Emmanuel Goldstein existed, but the truth of who he was and what he stood for became so twisted that by the time Winston grew into a man nobody knew who he really was except the leaders above the leaders. Goldstein became a name to attach to all the things the people knew was wrong, but had no way to articulate beyond 'something is wrong!' And -- this is the important part -- the leaders encouraged this, in order to keep the people ignorant.
The Illuminati was real, but today it's just an easy name for the unenlightened to attach to all the things they witness that are wrong. Unenlightened, because they have no idea who really runs things. They just know that something is not right. @aj41510's point about the pharmaceutical industry is real.
