There's no cession of power from governments to corporations; consider the recurrent social media hearings in DC, which as far I can tell are effectively just the bullying of CEOs to censor less/more.

Even this latest Delta, Coca-Cola, etc. seems to be just bullying: https://twitter.com/AmyBeePhoenix/status/1379295393301868546

It's just an upheaval of the elite.

You call it bullying, I call it ineffective posturing and pretending to get things done. Feels to me like a song and dance to placate the voters while not actually doing anything with impact.
