Late Stage Capitalism
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.

RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

"Prediction market platforms have exploded in popularity in recent years, facing condemnation from lawmakers and others who argue the sites commodify human suffering and, in some cases, incentivize wrongdoing. Proponents argue that the markets, their term for a question you can bet on, provide a more accurate snapshot of public opinion than traditional polls because of the financial incentives. "
"Amid the scrutiny, the public’s hunger for event contracts doesn’t show signs of slowing. A new prediction market site specifically focused on California wildfires was launched early this year, according to Wired, with the tagline: “You can’t predict wildfire. But you can trade on it.” The site does not appear to be active as of this week."
