Giant companies support what the state is on about and the cultural background noise en vogue. The companies were nazi in Germany, and they are communists in China even while applying the most capitalist precepts. If tomorrow the political climate severly changes and becomes a long standing phenomenon, Apple will feature in their ads white families picnicking using airpods (don't hold your breath)
Let's not try to sell us communism as the answer to this crap.

So, in a nutshell, the System’s neatest trick is this:
- For the sake of its own efficiency and security, the System needs to bring about deep and radical social changes to match the changed conditions resulting from technological progress.
- The frustration of life under the circumstances imposed by the System leads to rebellious impulses.
- Rebellious impulses are co-opted by the System in the service of the social changes it requires; activists “rebel” against the old and outmoded values that are no longer of use to the System and in favor of the new values that the System needs us to accept.
- In this way rebellious impulses, which otherwise might have been dangerous to the System, are given an outlet that is not only harmless to the System, but useful to it.
- Much of the public resentment resulting from the imposition of social changes is drawn away from the System and its institutions and is directed instead at the radicals who spearhead the social changes.
Many people do not understand the roots of their own frustration, hence their rebellion is directionless.

This isn't true at all, corporations will try to promote Liberalism or Critical Theory unless the state abuses its power and limits the free market.
India is run by a government that is anti-LGBT (and all previous governments of theirs were), yet corporations try to push Wokeness in India all the time:

Corporations have been trying to push this since the late 20th century there:

This isn't Liberal Democratic America, this is freaking third world conservative India run by a nationalist conservative government for the past 10 years (and their previous government was also heavily conservative by Western Liberal standards).
Ford Foundation in 1990 was one of the wealthiest corporations in America and they openly funded LGBT when it was unpopular to do so and the governments opposed it:

This doesn't only apply to LGBT, but other Liberal stuff as well. But LGBT is their favorite thing to promote and I know more about the subject. You can also see it with Hollywood blackwashing and stuff like Google's AI temporarily banning all White people depictions, which is not only unprofitable, but much more extreme than what the state promotes. To be clear, I don't necessarily oppose all of it by the way, just pointing out most corporations are very ideologically driven. If the state can have its own ideology, I don't see why corporations can't. Most of them are run by Leftist educated people after all.
Corporations are always more Liberal than the state. Just look at how Google and other mega corporations fund Democrats who want to tax them instead of Republicans who want to lower their tax. It's cause despite what people say about them, they have an ideology of their own. High IQ / rich people have a very strong tendency to be Liberal. It's also why academia is so Woke. The highest IQ groups in America are Anglicans (AKA Episcopalians) and Ashkenazi Jews, and they're the biggest supporters of Progressive policies as well as the wealthiest groups.
Companies are reigned in by the state there. The more power the state has and the less power corporate has, the stronger Conservative ideology is there. It however comes with the drawback of crippling of the economy. Just look at how Conservative statist Socialist-leaning countries like the USSR, Mao China, Venezuela, North Korea, NSDP Germany, Fascist Italy, Cuba, etc. were and compare them to Liberal Democratic Western countries like USA, Canada, Britain, Germany, etc. are. And ironically, once corporates gain more, they become less democratic and try to control what narratives are socially acceptable to believe in.The companies were nazi in Germany, and they are communists in China even while applying the most capitalist precepts.

Hmm, Ted Kaczynski's points are always interesting to read. But I can't help but feel he's overestimating the competence of the system. Couldn't this naturally occur as a result of social conditions leading to these actions rather than being the result of the system pulling the strings?

I THINK IT'S HIGH TIME YOU GREW A PAIR AND ADMIT THAT YOU GOT REKT.
You tried to use an idiom that I used, but you fucked up because your English is shit. Just deal with it. Your English level is below that of a Turkish high school kid.
In Turkey, high school kids learn how to use "high time." A high school student in Turkey is assumed to be around B1-B2 level. They are not even in C1 Advanced, but they know how to use "high time" properly, unlike you. I learned it in high school as well.
Go use Google Translate to learn what "lise" means in English. I have taken it from a website in Turkey where students get help with their homework.
Dude, your Chat GPT claim is pure comedy. No one learns English from an AI in one day. I have been taught English since I was around nine. For your information, English is taught as a foreign language in many countries. I don't need Chat GPT to write posts in English or learn grammar. You don't have to worry about my writing and reading skills, as well as my grammar because I have been taught. This is just a fraction of my books related to English. They were my coursebooks when I was a student.
It's literally the other way around. I feel like a daddy who beat up his little kid in a chess game, but my kid doesn't give up and in every instance tries to win against me just for one time.
First, out of nowhere, you attacked me and failed. It was a discussion between me and Petalpusher. It didn't include you in the first place.
Then you opened up the topic again, but your defeat was sealed long ago.
You are a broken, sad man. I don't follow you around, but you follow me around and shout at me.
First debate, I won and I even have a hard evidence for it.
In the second debate, you couldn't refute my argument, "Ireland seems to have a racism and xenophobia problem to some extent." You chimped out, then scurried away.
Third debate. I claimed that Iran is not going to do serious shit you opposed and said I'm not the guy to go on current events, but it came true. Just look at Israeli casulties.
