You're fact checking me with Snopes, wew fucking lad. And it even fucking says pretty much the same thing I am, that your state education has failed you and you don't know the meaning of the word "corporatism":

Most importantly, though, the meme’s central point revolves around a common misunderstanding of what “corporatism” was in Mussolini’s fascism and a conflation with the modern capitalist “corporation,” most likely borne out of the similarity between the words.

Corporatism (“corporativismo” in Italian) was one of the cornerstone principles in Mussolini’s fascism, and had to do with the way society and the economy would be organized, with state power at the head of a system of guilds or corporations (“corporazione”) representing each major industry.
