      It’s the opposite for the US as it is for any other fascist regime. The state is controlled mostly by companies with minimal regulation so that they don’t end up cannibalising the country and the military is used to impose their imperialist hegemony.

        I thought this was the case for Neoliberalism and Fascism being two sides of the same coin? Neoliberalism being this situation, where the companies/private sector more or less controls the state, and under Fascism the state more or less controls companies/the private sector (isn’t this how the economy was run under Nazi Germany? Where the fascists used/controlled the private sector for their own ends?)
