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.

Basically it goes
Hospital: Holy fuck insurance pays more than peons can, increase the prices! 2 chewable asprins are now 200 dollars.
Insurance: Hey, fuck you, you cunt. We're not paying 200 dollars for 10 cents of chewable asprins. We'll pay 50.
Hospital: Hey, fuck you, you got the money, give us 125.
Insurance: Go fuck your whore mother, You're getting 100 and not a dollar more
Hospital: Fine, Deal.
Self Pay Patient: How am I supposed to afford to pay for the asprin when this is how it goes..
