Our war against free speech cannot end until we silence this bronze beast!

I think the issue is simply about refining definitions, I think "Free Market Authoritarianism" is probably a better descriptor simply because Fascism in itself is such a unique form of ideology that is more than simply racist, militaristic and totalitarian state.



ITT a poster thinks corporations want free markets.

It is a descriptor of their ideology not the actual result.

Also no, a "free market" is never going to exist under any liberal system. Authoritarianism is the natural result of any free market ideology.

Its certainly the name they give their ideology but they're all protectionist as gently caress.

I'd also disagree with whoever said earlier that Corporationistas have no ideology but money, for some thats certainly the case but there do certainly seem to be some "class conscious" ones actively suppressing democracy and markets.
