That page describes how "crony capitalism" is used colloquially. Dictionaries are not a great source for determining canonical meaning of complex political terminology.

I argue that usage of the term "crony capitalism" is itself a form of capitalist ideology.

Yet a Marxist site is used as an unbiased source. Oh, the irony.

You're welcome to present a capitalist site as a source for the definition you prefer, and I'd be happy to discuss that.

Just don't use a dictionary, please! It's the wrong tool for the job here, regardless of political leanings.
