Where do I fit in, I want capitalism with massive regulation and oversight and no corporation protection for board members?

Sounds like SocDem, the problem with that is you want to give Capitalists all of the control of key industries and large firms yet somehow not also have control of the state.

i.e. you want to give the companies the guns to go hunting for food, except you still want to tell them what they can hunt, but you don’t have any guns yourself. But surely they will obey you and not point out that they have the guns so you should make whatever rules they want

In this case “you” is either the OP of this this thread or just a general you

Where do you fit in? Do you own capital? Are you a business owner or a factory owner? If not then you are a tool for capitalists to exploit as they wish

Socialism with chinese characteristics.

China is a controlled market economy where capitalists hold no political power. Tho there is not that much regulation as people think there is, people are very free to enterprise as long as they comply with the general direction of the CPC.
