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.
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.

I really lucked out with Rivian. So far though, Rivian and Volvo can decide to be dicks too and nothing will stop them if they do.
Rivian is phenomenal as long as nothing goes wrong with them, as the wait times for parts are kinda long right now and there aren’t a ton of people trained to work on them.
That’s literally the worst that can be said about them right now, which is also great. Volvo I’m worried about since PoleStar just got banned in the USA from selling new cars but I’m pretty sure if they went even slightly evil they’d lose most of their customer base from reputation alone.
The problem is that the polestars are rebranded Chinese evs. Volvo was purchased by a Chinese company for the purpose of using its branding to get Chinese cars to market.
