"Fascism" has too many ambiguous understandings and "corporatocracy" is long and often confusing to people who hear it for the first time. GovCorp is perfect, and almost rhymes with tyranny.

Also fascism is the exact inverse of this system

I disagree.

I think they're fusing the worst of fascism and worst of communism into their ultimate control goal: global totalitarianism without options.

Fascists typically supported things like- traditional gender rolls & cultural values, a socialised economy, preserving nature & militant Nationalism.

How does that in any way resemble today’s economically right wing & socially far-left hellscape of a system?

traditional gender rolls

The male tactical military roll and the female waltz and somersault roll.

"Jelly roll", in the 1920s was slang for making whoopee.
