I hate to tell you that because I appreciate your post, but it doesn't fit in /c/technology
Last month, he was rehired only to be fired a second time — after courts ruled some of Trump’s layoffs illegal, then legal again.
Fucking hell.
Sic semper tyranus.
This reminds me of what Germany was like c.1930.
Reminds you?
Yeah, I have been comparing the failure to form a left-center government at the end of the Weimar Republic resulting in the Nazi's rise to power to the 2024 election.
Rack one more up to the MAGAt kill count.
If only her family could get $5M from rhw US government.....

Whats "free market" about an authoritarian regime?
A "free market" as in the sense these lunatics envision it is a market devoid of any form of outside regulations. In essence, survival of the fittest on an economical level: Profit above all else, might makes right, consequences be damned. One ~~president~~ ~~führer~~ CEO calling the shots, everybody else following or getting crushed in the machinery.
So you tell me: What's not authoritarian about corporate capitalism?

Capitalism inherently doesn't require a free market... It just requires oligarchs to own emans of production
Free market is a separate topic and it doesn't rally exist anyway
That's about as close to the definition as China is to Communism. When people like you say "Capitalism" you mean "Western World Powers". Why mask up so hard?
No I mean...
Rich people own critical sectors of the economy from which they extract rent

I mean Doge doesn't even really fit into what most would call capitalism. Closer to corruption, hubris, and plain old stupidity really.
It fits perfectly as a vessel to further the neoliberal agenda of dismantling any form of regulations to create their vision of a "perfect" free market society.
