“If the tinfoil hat crowd secretly runs everything, would that make them the Aluminati?”
“Tin foil hat” (from aluminum foil) is used as a stereotype for something worn by a conspiracy theorist, and several jokes mention the “Aluminati” (aluminum + Illuminati).

Wikipedia: Tin foil hat
A tin foil hat is a hat made from one or more sheets of aluminium foil (commonly called “tin foil” in the United States and New Zealand), or a piece of conventional headgear lined with foil, often worn in the belief or hope that it shields the brain from threats such as electromagnetic fields, mind control, and mind reading. The notion of wearing homemade headgear for such protection has become a popular stereotype and byword for paranoia, persecutory delusions, and belief in pseudoscience and conspiracy theories.
“Tin foil” is a common misnomer for aluminium foil; packaging metal foil was formerly made out of tin before it was replaced with aluminium.
Wikipedia: Illuminati
The Illuminati ( /ɪˌluːmɪˈnɑːti/; plural of Latin illuminatus, ‘enlightened’ ) is a name given to several groups, both real and fictitious.

A tinfoil hat will protect you from the #Illuminati, but it won’t protect you from the Aluminati.

Aluminati
n. A group of people that believe Illuminati are watching them, and wear aluminum hats to protect themselves from radio waves trying to read their brain.
The Aluminati knew the Illuminati were watching him as his hat was vibrating.

Let me get this straight. So, the Aluminati are the ones secretly controlling everyone’s thoughts and behaviors, broadcasting their mental manipulations from their tinfoil hats…

The reason tinfoil hats work is because they foil the technology of the Aluminati.
