Yup. Which is why anyone who wants to stand against corporations should be standing against those that seek to monopolise power, AKA the state. Corporations can only exist through the state. Without the state, free trade is possible and businesses of all levels are on the same footing.

And contrary to the squeals from retards about historical examples, like the East India Company, the reality is that such enterprises were first and foremost bankrolled by the state, for the state.

And it's still the case to this day. Look at the companies that have the most leeway in swaying public opinion, namely social media companies, and all the major players are HEAVILY involved with state agents and/or funding. These are not private entities, they're state entities. It's not rich vs poor. Not corporation vs public. It's not even left vs right. It's the state vs the people. And those that object to stating said reality almost always seek to use the state against the innocent for their personal goals. And sure, many of those goals are noble, but at the end of the day, the argument still boils down to whether or not you believe that the ends justify the means. And in my experience, the statist always believes that it does.
