Republican capitalism is just thinly veiled corporate socialism for industry leaders. Expecting it to make sense in a capitalist sense is to pretend they’re libertarians. Even the libertarian congressmen are not libertarians.
Late stage capitalism seems to be largely defined as the results of concentrated money without touching much on the oligarchs’ role within government. I’d describe what we’re going through as a crumbling socialization structure for the interests of the masses with a stark growing socialization structure for the interest of the richest few. Late Capitalism is like Bioshock, whereas accelerated oligarchy is more like Arcane, with the police participating in the class rule rather than private forces.

Oh, I know. But we should at least call them on their bullshit from time to time. A real capitalist would pay for higher education.
No, a real capitalist owns slaves and extracts all their value for himself.
Which is what they are now doing to us. The final squeeze.
It’s sick and sad that they don’t understand what the endgame will actually look like.
