This was on the news yesterday: > The meeting between Hegseth and Amodei was confirmed by a defense official who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. https://fortune.com/2026/02/24/hegseth-to-meet-with-anthropic-ceo-dario-amodei/ https://fortune.com/2026/02/24/hegseth-to-meet-with-anthropi...

  How about this quote instead? "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has threatened Anthropic, saying officials could invoke powers that would allow the government to force the artificial intelligence firm to share its novel technology in the name of national security if it does not agree by Friday to terms favorable to the military" https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/02/24/pentagon-demands-ai-access/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/02/24/pentago...

Not one single mention of Hegseth in the whole article. What a bunch of tools.

I mean seriously, is this not the very definition of fascism? "n general, fascist governments exercised control over private property but they did not nationalize it. Scholars also noted that big business developed an increasingly close partnership with the Italian Fascist and German Nazi governments after they took power. Business leaders supported the government's political and military goals. In exchange, the government pursued economic policies that maximized the profits of its business allies.[8]"

  All governments do this

    So you’re saying all governments are fascist? Because when I posted is the accepted understanding of the economic arm of fascism.

      Do all governments do this? Maybe, you need to incorporate some notion of degree or context into the classification, instead of treating it like a boolean.
