No, American is capitalistic and within that system exists things like corporations. Corporations don’t always benefit a capitalist society for instance if a corporation tries to buy output isn’t competition, make it harder for competitors, and manipulate prices to undercut competitors.

Edit: also corporations being able to lobby against the American voters such how Disney threatened to do in Florida.

I’m not trying to be rude or close minded here but before Elon Musk, Twitter was a left lining platform, and there was blatant proof of right wingers being banned or censored on the platform. Before he even took off for the platform, a lot of people are gunning for him, and for the company to fail under him simply because he wanted to make it open for everyone. I don’t agree with all of his decisions, but considering the circumstances that he was in when he took over the company I don’t see what else prove my point, there was even leaked documents, showing FBI involvement and censor in American people which is a first amendment violation.

You feel you know it all but are unable to prove where I’m incorrect with facts and not your opinion in doing so haven’t proven anything.

You’re correct but my issue is with the corruption part. Look at Hollywood and that fiasco of a boycott and how it affected the people at the bottom of the union. Or the teachers union where is the damn near impossible to fire bad teachers and how the school system is suffering for that. Where as private schools pay more in return your job is dependent on how well your students preform.

The last sentence came from the definition of communism all be it not the shareholders and board members part, but it sure fit in there like the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle. 😁

There are less insiders working with these companies, X is trying to be neutral, and is trying not to be beholden to outside forces so I would have to disagree with you.

Okay i get what you’re saying but my point wasn’t to say that capitalism controls the government but to say that we need the government to enforce any functioning economic system. If we’re having an issue in a system that’s functioning well for the must part but has some rough edges we need the government to smooth out those edges instead of throwing out a mostly working system over ones that have been proven throughout history to lead to corruption and death.

Only thing I can say is we’ll see how it plays out in court I could be wrong, but at the end of the day we’re just bench sitters in all this
