The natural progression of capitalism and corporation is fascism; the fusion of corporation and state. Liberal democracy was supposed to prevent this via laws and regulations, but corporations chose to seize the means of democracy via neoliberalism and conservatism instead.

Every US corporation will be a totalitarian nazi corporation within a few years, so everyone should switch away from big ~~tech~~ brother, and all entities that do business with them.

Corporations are not allies. They never will be.

and be replaced with another fascist billionaire? i dont see the point.

You see, if you get rid of 1, then they're easily replaced.

But if you get rid of 50, 100, or 500, it's harder to replace them.

if you get rid of 500 you might have gotten rid of all of them in a given country.

still, the power structure will leave a vacuum someone will take. this is what needs change.

Apple is just a soul-less business that will do anything for profit?? That's impossible...
