Good. I am tired of vendor-lock-in of a few corporations dominating the world here. Capitalism was never corporate-fascism - after all one element is free competition in a free market. This has been broken numerous times again and again, and the US justice department is deliberately unwilling to remedy this situation - thus also betraying the idea behind capitalism. No wonder since the orange mafia is running the show right now, with all signs of real dementia now being obvious.
Capitalism was never the same as free-market. In a free market there's competition, but in capital-ism it's all centralised at a few people, the ones who have all the capital.
You singlehandedly created the synapse connection I needed to understand why people hate capitalism. I've defended it so many times and now realize what I was actually trying to defend was the free market and me and the arguer were talking past each other.
