Think of this, is there a person more willing to punish, kill, or enslave their fellow citizens than a SJW? In their minds our existence is actual violence, to them we are the tyrants. Is there a more ideologically pure recruit for a tyrannical government? These zealots would actively work against any non woke president or elected official.

It's owners are a mass of investors. In fact, the worst part of our system is that there is a lack of actual capitalists. It's just corporations, banks, and governments putting other people's money into other banks and corporations, while specific bureaucrats who risk absolutely nothing take a cut of all the trades done.
A capitalist, acatually has to spend their capital, and assume risk. The Corporatist system is explicitly designed to prevent risk from being taken.
And again, you're changing the definition of capitalism anyway by saying that if something has a capitalist, then it is capitalism. Even Marx wouldn't agree with that definition.
A free-market system is entirely in contradiction to a corporatist system. A corporatist system explicitly pushes for protectionism for the corporations, a free market opposes exactly that.
This is why there is a distinction between "Pro-Market" and "Pro-Business"
Corporatists do not want to minimize. There's no risk in it. That's why you don't build them protections, which is why you need a free market.
Again, Corporatists, but that's why you need a free market. There is nothing in a free market that is too big to fail. Failure is necessary in the market. Failure at size is literally guaranteed. It's not "too big to fail", it's "so big it must fail", because an entity that is too large is also unwieldy and slow to adapt to changes in the market. Those changes are good. Deflationary pressures are good. Failures of unprofitable business are good.
Corporatists require government intervention and regulation to stay afloat to prevent themselves from collapsing due to inefficiency. The government protection makes the corporation effectively an extension of state power (besides the fact that the corporate structure itself is a government legal entity), since the corporation exists to fulfill the needs of the government, and exists only at the behest of that government.
Banks that were too big to fail, had too much of the government's control and interests tied up in it to be allowed to fail, so the rest of the world had to pay for their recovery.
Similarly, when deflationary pressures arrived from COVID, 46 million people were put out of work so that Amazon didn't lose any money. This is how the corporatists always operate.
