How Chabad gained control of the diaspora/Jewish conspiracy in a nutshell.

Chabad managed to gain control of the diaspora due to the previous work of the rise of Sabbatean & Frankist kabbalist leaders.

"The 1600s were a time of terrible suffering for the Jewish people. In Eastern Europe, entire communities were wiped out by Cossacks and others led by Ukrainian leader Bogdan Chmielnicki.

Not surprisingly, the terrible suffering of the Jewish people heightened messianic aspirations, with the Jews grasping at any idea that might bring an end to their travails. Consequently, the time was ripe for impostors to make messianic claims. As such, the messianic fervor started by Shabbatai Zevi and his followers became the greatest and most pernicious false messianic movement in Jewish history since the time of Bar Kochba.

[...]

Even great rabbis were caught up in the atmosphere of anticipation – so much so that by 1666 nearly all of the world's Jews were followers of Shabbatai Zevi."
"The mercurial messianic leader Jacob Frank (1726-1791) is probably the most colorful and intriguing figure in eighteenth-century Jewish history. He was born in Podolia, where his family, like many Jews in this notably heterodox province on the eastern borderlands of Poland, was associated with the heretical Sabbatian movement, which had first emerged in the 1660s around the self-proclaimed messiah Sabbatai Zevi (1626-1676). In the early 1750s in Salonika, Frank established close contacts with a group of the Dönmeh, a clandestine Islamic sect made up of descendants of those disciples of Sabbatai who, following their leader's enigmatic conversion to Islam in 1666, later also outwardly adopted the Muslim faith. In 1755 he returned to Podolia, declaring himself Sabbatai's messianic heir."

CHABAD STEPS IN;

"After the conversion of the false messiah Shabbetai Tzvi in 1666, world Jewry fell into a deep depression. Many had felt that the long-awaited Redemption had been imminent, but now they were condemned to live in an unredeemed world which continued to despise them. Israel Baal Shem Tov (the Besht), and the followers of Hasidism, STEPPED INTO THIS VACUUM OF HOPE. Founded in the mid-to late-eighteenth century, Hasidism arose from the ashes of Shabbetai Tzvi and his messianic message."

Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov (1698-1760), Founder of the Chassidic Movement:

"Through his teachings – and perhaps even more so through his passionate love – Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov, founder of the chassidic movement, permanently transformed the Jewish landscape."

Power of Chabad today:

“The active religious activity and education in the Diaspora is dominated by the Chabad movement, whose center is in Brooklyn.”

Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the seventh Lubavitcher Rebbe, was inarguably the most well-known rabbi since Moses Maimonides.

“the Chabad movement continues to grow rapidly”

“There is no doubt that Chabad takes whatever it does to extremes.  There is no Jewish group more active in more far-flung places of the world than them. [...] Chabad emissaries would one day take over the Jewish world. [...] Chabad is no longer merely a Jewish movement. It is Judaism. [...] No other organization even comes close to its global reach or grassroots impact. And it is growing exponentially. [...] As Rav David Berger notes in his book on the subject, Chabad is expanding within significant parts of the Jewish community through a clever strategy. [...] There is a reason Chabad is found in isolated small Jewish communities that no one else pays attention to, why they show up on campuses even in cities with a large Torah-observant population and why they pay so much attention to Jewish communities and travellers in such places as Russia and India.”

“The new study from Pew reports something astounding. 38% of all US Jews have engaged in some way with a Chabad program.”

“The Chabad.org website, these institutions reach millions of Jews every year.

Chabad-Lubavich describes itself as the largest Jewish organization in the world, and leading experts on Jewish communal life agree with that assessment.

“Nobody else comes close,” says Mark Rosen, an expert on Jewish institutions and a professor at Brandeis University’s Hornstein Jewish Professional Leadership Program.”

Chabad Journal:

“Chabad and the Rebbe through his Chassidim and shluchim have tremendous influence over a vast number of powerful associations and individuals, including philanthropists, politicians, celebrities, presidents, prime ministers, etc. While Chabad is not raucous and strident like some political party, under the surface it is a movement with a great deal of power and impact.”

2013: "CHABAD, known for its excellent government connections in Washington, Jerusalem & Moscow, is now the world's largest network of Jewish financial acquaintances, connections & involvement in the world. The Soviet Union, but also everywhere else, from Kathmandu to Buenos Aires and the Batya Souvenir, a voluntary network with ideological elements of mission, almost missionary in nature, whose ties to the center in Brooklyn are moral and spiritual."

Gershom Scholem:

"Even in recent times there has been a definite tendency among scholars to minimize at all costs the significance of this “heretical” Sabbatianism, with the result that no adequate investigation yet exists of its spiritual foundations, its overall impact on 18th-century Jewry, or its ultimate fate."

“The 11th of Shevat is a special day for the entire Jewish people - when the Lubavitcher Rebbe SHLITA King Moshiach became the head of Chabad and world Jewry in 1951.”

1st paragraph.

https://moshiach.ru/view/shalom/16630.html 

It is possible the Sabbatean movement was used as a springboard by the top Jews to help them achieve control over the secular/religious Jews with various flavors of Judaism,

“...the birth of Shabbateanism, led to the rise of Reform, Haskalah, and, lehavdil, Hasidism. With Hasidism, the deepest wisdom of the Torah began to be openly revealed around the world. With Chabad Hasidism in particular, the modern baal teshuvah movement took off, and myriads of Jews exiled around the world began to return to the Torah, in fulfilment of Biblical prophecy. [...] as horrible as Shabbateanism proved to be, there was something of a silver lining in that it sparked several new and diverse Jewish movements, ultimately leading to renewed interest in returning to Israel, and renewed interest in returning to the Torah.”

and the Sabbatean-Frankists were the ones who led the rise of these new Jewish movements. In example,

"Scholem argued that many former Frankists and Shabbateans found a comfortable home in the new movement of “Reform Judaism” (pgs. 304-308). In fact, the first Reform temple in Prague was founded by a group of Frankists"
