    because a huge part of fascism is the merging of corporations with the government.

    the corporate media is covering for nazis for the same reason the leader enshittificator Alphabet, the otherwise twitter’s direct competitor Evil Corp, and of course the slavery warehouse Amazon were all represented with their figureheads Sunil Bakshi, the T-600, and Lex Luthor alongside that Troglodyte Phony Stark. they’re merging.

      That is the precise thing your average true believer right wing “libertarian” doesn’t understand about fascism.

      It doesn’t matter whether the state or the corporations absorb the other, the merging of these power structures (and religion as well) is the goal. The result is still a tyranny that can only be escaped with war.
