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, anti-communism, 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.

A filling material capsule is about $5.

Amalgam or cement? I pay around 70€ for the material of a ceramic filling.

A composite compule for single use. For a ceramic inlay or only or crown, an emax ingot is about EUR30 for me in private-dentistry-expensive Australia. Off brands are cheaper and most dentists dont use them despite an incredibly overbearing TGA here that limits what materials can be used or improved (similar tonusa fda). Australia does not allow practitioners to import goods from overseas, even if from same factory. Only those with a licence for that specific product may do so to prevent shoddy materials. It leads to higher expense here, but also higher safety.
