A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Companies don't want fascism, they just want tax breaks. Civil war and dictatorships are bad for business.

Fascism is very good for businesses. They squash dissent like unions and the publics voice. Then only the billionaire class will have a voice.

Billionaires in China have been disappeared before. There's only the head of state that matters in fascism.

Only the chosen few businesses, and entirely at the whims of the dictator. Your CEO pisses off the leader, your business goes bye bye.

Fascists weren't bad for companies like VW, BMW, and Hugo Boss.
