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.

Seems like you have to be pretty fucking stupid in order to run a campaign that has you losing to Trump, and yet the dems have managed to do it twice.
People dont vote for democrats because they suck and voting for them either does nothing or actively makes things worse.
Nearly three times. Biden only won by 40k votes across three states. Anyone who thinks he was a lock could have been proven wrong by some bad weather or a marginal (.3%) shift in public sentiment.
What caused the president to win, was forcing uneectable candidates on the dems and then shouting down all criticism of them, as if pretending they aren't worthless worked.
Get off your high horse, we knew what the republicans were, and what the democrats were, and we trusted the opposition to what is beyond any doubt the Controlled Opposition of the Oligarchy.
Anyone with a brain would've known anointed kamala with no contest was handing the election to the now president. Everyone. Oh, you weren't one? What does that say about your understanding?
No offense but I don't want to wade through your shit again forcing another doomed to fail dem on us.
Spineless democrats is what caused trump to win both times
I like how this comment appears to be bait for Americans with three braincells
