The data surrounding cooperatives don't appear to indicate any danger to large firms and other Capitalist entities dominating markets.

Can I see that data?

Since I'm sure you're arguing in good faith here and have actually looked at some data, and you're not just making things up.

There's small but sustained growth in small firms, but these are nowhere near scaling to the level of large corporations and firms, indicating an inability to overtake them. Rather, they seem to be "filling in the cracks," overtaking small sectors while leaving areas dominated by large firms untouched. This is why public ownership actually has a path to control these large firms.
