1437 Destroying Capitalism with Capitalism

Laissez-faire Capitalism, where there are no government rules and companies are not held to account, is rightly rejected by most people, though there is a contingent of Ayn Rand-style libertarians who still preach it. But even the rules under which Capitalism operates, there is a lot of room for quasi-legal chicanery because corporations have tremendous power over average people’s lives while still denying they are Fascists. Traditionally, before the MAGA movement, corporations represented the Right, and all that was wrong with it. However, the Left has completely co-opted this power, and now wield it to promote their feminist woke agenda. The court decision, Citizens United, allowed unlimited so-called “dark money” to be injected into politics, ensuring that no candidate can get elected unless they do the bidding of shadowy special interests. As exemplified by the Leftist billionaire, George Soros, who finances the campaigns of Leftist district attorneys & judges at the local level, people who can persecute a former president with lawfare & impunity. The Left has purchased all news & entertainment outlets to promote their narrative, distorting facts, and even blatantly lying to sway public opinion without consequences, under the guise of them being private businesses. An even more powerful capitalistic exploit are hedge funds, which get the stock votes of the investors, so the politics of the manager of the hedge fund can dictate to the companies they invest in regardless of fiduciary responsibility; in fact, in spite of it, instead promoting ESG, Environmental, Social & Governance goals that have nothing to do with business. All of these problems with Capitialism invading the political sphere have solutions but it’s the politicians who benefit from it happening, so nothing will change.
