Usually it's still the government taking control over businesses in fascism, but not in the socialist way of changing the internal structure of any companies and how they operate. Instead you get the businessmen to join the leading political party and toe the line, or you throw them in jail (or kill them) and hand over their business to a party member (e.g. Hermann Göring).

What blurs the line is that the fascists usually gets some of big business on board with this before they even get into power and start this process (e.g. Trump's inauguration).

So exactly the same then?

Surely it can't have a worse script than the 1984 movie which sets up a plot and then just ignores it for half the movie with Supergirl instead attending high-school with all the predictable not-even-slightly-superheroish drama that this entails.

He might have inadvertently also contributed to the green transition with the Iran war exposing how vulnerable oil dependency really is. An optimist can hope that these even out.

These just get worse and worse don't they.

The 50% question is where you will find the reason.>50% public ownership means public control. 50% public ownership just means a bailout.

Ah that old chestnut. Yes, European NATO countries have long benefited from being backed by US military guarantees. But this was in no way something the US were against. After the cold war, the US were encouraging a move away from national defence and instead towards European NATO members specializing their military for a few specific tasks. This was optimization for supporting the US military in a post-cold war world. The US didn't want a strong Europe, they wanted a Europe dependent on the US:

Now there has been a change, and while it will take years to build up European independent security, the process is ongoing and Trump has ensured it is not going to stop.

We have already started to hear whining from the US about getting exactly what they ordered when European NATO is investing more and more into European-made weapons instead of buying American. Maybe we are not so many years away from export restrictions on some high-tech weapons from the EU to the US, just like the US does not sell it's best weapons to NATO allies.

Ah yes, the brilliant master plan to destabilize the US by posting comments on Slashdot. It will surely collapse any moment now.

At least Clippy never stole your data. He was like regular Jar-Jar instead of Sith Lord Jar-Jar.

Naah, with Lost ending, no-one was entering those codes anymore which caused it.

Not to mention they were at the forefront of the move from just making singles to making albums in pop music, a trend which has really reversed only fairly recently when streaming took over.

Iran also has a regular army which is separate from the IRGC and is secular vs. the IRGC which is connected to the Mullahs.

Looking at the size and territory (mountains) of Iran, the US would be unable to effectively invade Iran without the draft.

With 92 million inhabitants, Iran is hardly a small country..
