A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

When they recognize a marginalized group their material conditions never change. Democrats claim to support the trans community and being able to use the bathroom of choice, but don't care you are living in the streets whole making those decisions. They claim to support the black community whole building up oppressive police forces and helping build cop cities across the country, with cops being trained by the IDF, the same IDF currently slaughtering Palestinians. They supported MLK and civil rights that hated MLK after the bill was signed.
This is who's they've always been.

I used to think you could argue on good terms with Dems, that has become painfully apparent to be wrong over 10 years ago now.
Having been raised socialist that's been my entire experience.
Wish I could say the same, it's been a long winding road.
