I was recently thinking about Propaghandi shows of my youth. They would often mention the Mussolini quote about merging corporate and state power to claim fascism, but misunderstand what "corporate" meant in that context or the direction of influence that merge implied. That seems relevant now.
Kevin Elliott@kjephd.bsky.social · last yr.Been listening to the 1990s & 2000s punk music of my youth and it's pretty funny what kind of regime they were willing to call fascist From 2025, it's very quaint

US Coast Guard Academy censors ‘climate change’ from its curriculum
