Yes! And symbolism is their downfall. They mark their territory in plain view with symbols.“Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.” – Benito Mussolini
Fascism is a political system that emphasizes autocratic government, dictatorial leadership, and the suppression of opposition. It is characterized by:
In ancient times, fasces were a Roman symbol of power and authority, a bundle of wooden rods and an axe bound together by leather thongs. Fasces represented that a man held imperium, or executive authority
- Forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism
- Regimenting all industry and commerce
- Emphasizing aggressive nationalism and often racism
“Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.” – Benito Mussolini (actually first written by Giovanni Gentile)
“Corporations are the opposite of good citizens. They bribe politicians to write laws that cheat society on a mammoth scale, most significantly by allowing them to avoid paying many of the very real costs incurred in conducting their businesses.“ Such very real costs ”include the social and environmental costs of destruction of valuable resources, pollution, the burdens on society of workers who become injured or ill and receive little or no health care, the indirect funding received when companies are permitted to market hazardous products, dump wastes into oceans and rivers, pay employees less than a living wage, provide substandard working conditions, and extract natural resources from public lands at less than market prices. Furthermore, most corporations are dependent on public subsidies, exemptions, massive advertising and lobbying campaigns, and complex transportation and communications systems that are underwritten by taxpayers; their executives receive inflated salaries, perks, and “golden retirement parachutes” which are written off as tax deductions.” - John Perkins, author of “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man”
There are two governments in the United States today. One is visible. The other is invisible. The first is the government that citizens read about in their newspapers and children study about in their civics books. The second is the interlocking, hidden machinery that carries out the policies of the United States in the Cold War. This second, invisible government gathers intelligence, conducts espionage and plans and executes secret operations all over the globe.” “The Invisible Government…although the CIA is at its heart…even encompasses business firms and institutions that are seemingly private.” – David Wise and Thomas B. Ross, co-authors of “The Invisible Government”
“If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been “taken”. Once you give a charlatan (or a corporation) power over you, you almost never get it back.” – Carl Sagan, author of “The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark”
“Corporate-controlled ‘science’ is not really science but a smokescreen to pave the way for products that may be harmful or addictive - but what do they care as long as they profit? There are many great scientists but there are also many who are willing to be ‘hired’ to ‘prove’ that something is safe, effective, or doesn't cause cancer. You cannot trust the EPA, the FDA, the CDC or Big Pharma/Big Vaccine-connected corporate ‘science’.”
