Third Way

[stupidicus]

237. of course you do

because almost all people use it properly, and your effort to educate me about fascism is nothing more than a transparent dodge imposed by your inability to provide any of the material alleged. ANd even if you did provide say, some poster or two daring to verbally assault you with an erroneous or fallacious designation of that sort, it still leaves you holding nothing but a dishonest extrapolation you haven't a prayer of supporting. I'm sure there's widespread agreement as to what fascism/corporatocracy is as applied to our government, and no one cares if Mussolini was referring to corps as different entitities of the state's creation, or whether it is improperly defined as our current problem, corps instead dictating to the state via politician ownership. The little guy sees little but the boot or thumb he's under, not who owns it, and could likely care less what/who you call that owner.

It doesn't matter if I assert that thirdwayers are fascist-lite, or oligarchist/plutarchist/part of the "1%" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/carl-gibson/the-corporatocracy-is-the_b_1070659.htmletc, because it really doesn't matter much what you call them in this "us v them" war we're embroiled in. Furthermore, there's likely notta single reader here that was CONfused about my meaning or point. "Thirdwayers" simply do not like the negative connotations attached to the label now that the negative results of their dirty work over the last couple of decades (BC whining about too many in prison as a result of his policies, failed welfare reform, Glass-Steegal, etc) is increasingly becoming common knowledge.

In the U.S. corporatocracy, as in most modern tyrannies, there are elections, but the reality is that giant corporations and the wealthy elite rule in a way to satisfy their own self-interest. In elections in a corporatocracy, as is the case in elections in all tyrannies, it's in the interest of the ruling class to maintain the appearance that the people have a say, so more than one candidate is offered up. In the U.S. corporatocracy, it's in the interest of corporations and the wealthy elite that the winning candidate is beholden to them, so they financially support both Democrats and Republicans. It's in the interest of corporations and the wealthy elite that there are only two viable parties--this cuts down on bribery costs. And it's in the interest of these two parties that they are the only parties with a chance of winning. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bruce-e-levine/the-myth-of-us-democracy-corporatocracy_b_836573.html

All I see here is someone whining about others calling them part of the problem http://www.opednews.com/articles/Obamaheads-like-Extreme-R-by-Patrick-Walker-130504-698.html which may not be that far from the truth, no?
