Are you saying that a captured government is still in charge? That’s … not how capture works.

  > Are you saying that a captured government is still in charge? I'm saying that people in government has to decide to be captured, when it extracts free money from its populace with the promise that it will remain impartial. > That’s … not how capture works. This is never a useful thing to say in terms of furthering the conversation. I appreciate it may have felt good, though.

    It felt like I as having to explain things to someone who was being thick for the simple purpose of being thick. Corporations have purchased our government and therefore the government is, in my opinion, not in charge. Sure they enact violence as all nation states do- often on behalf of those corporations. Neither of those two actors are good for the people, for the working class.
