Yes and no. Fascist governments aren't pointing their guns at big companies.

Idk maybe you're misinterpreting it

People are paycheck to paycheck. We have no recourse.

Landlords are month to month. They'll consume us if they need to make things work.

The banks live bailout to bailout at this point. They'll consume landlords if they need to make things work.

The government lives war to war. They'll consume banks die if they can't find other people that they're stronger than who are playing a similar game with their banks, landlords, and people.

This is why we must consume the rich.

Rejoice! Saturnalia is approaching! The eve of the inversion is near! Peasants shall dine as king's on the flesh of the once-royal!

The point is that either way, the US government has the corporations "life" in its hands. If they go down, the Fortune 500 bailouts stop. That's when the gun goes off.
