It's very simple. Their argument is that no company should ever challenge a government, that if this happens, the company is too powerful and should be broken apart.

Just to make this clear, in a normal democracy, anyone can challenge a government or institution, even separate individuals, as long as they have merit, legal or moral, to their claim and they can demonstrate it.

The user proposes that by default all claims of a corporation to a country are illegal and harmful and they should be punished and split apart for it.

So... if that's a valid argument, it suggests an unchecked government, with no comparable size organization to challenge it is better somehow. Governments are better. But are they?

Prove it.
