Working-class lad who clawed his way to the middle, only to find the ladder missing to the top. Not posh, not polished, but painfully aware that we need to tax wealth, not work. Unapologetically here.
Sure, there’s no neat label for your bespoke mix of greed, repression, and megalomania—but ‘Capitalist-Oligarch-Neofascist-Technocrat’ covers it. Acronyms help. CONT will do.

Capitalism is not fascism. But under authoritarian conditions or crises, capitalist systems can be bent to serve fascist interests. The safeguard lies in strong democratic institutions, rule of law, and equitable wealth distribution.
