Of course, but I don't see your point.

So you don't think having the government seize the assets of a private entity for political or economical protectionist purposes would reek of fascism?

Hmm.. what other industries can Uncle Sam take hold of while we're at it... how bout the oil companies?  We'll just say it's for "environmental" purposes.  Or how about all the gun manufacturers so the 2nd ammendment can effectively be abolished?

If you're going to allow government seizure of private assets merely for threatening to move jobs offshore, than might as well do it to the "baddest" of the bunch like Big Oil and guns, amirite?

I said disowning companies should only be done in specific situations (profitable company that received subsidies or used backdoors and IS moving abroad). Don't twist my words. And your definition of fascism is a bit off.
