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.

We intend to hold fire to their feet
I heard this so much during Biden's term of "holding Dems accountable" and "we're pushing them left".
Then Biden did this right before leaving (not even accounting for all the anti-worker shit he did before then during his time in office). Yeah we really held them accountable and pushed him left.
Lol, you really think anyone believes this anymore?
Yes, we do. The next Dem Congress isn't going to be like the last one. There are already a bunch of angry progressives, and a bunch of Dems that want off the leash, and there will be a lot more coming in after the Midterms. These aren't feckless losers like Schumer, these people chose to run because they're PISSED OFF at the Schumers and Jeffries in Congress. They are not going to accept orders to back off of MAGA punishment.
Dems that don't go along with a committed strategy of crushing MAGA, will find themselves being investigated, too. What are you trying to hide? MAGA will be the prime target, but it's perfectly okay if we haul out some Democrat trash, too, starting with Schmuck & Jeffries.
This is what we demand, and we are electing Progressives and new blood to do it, and handing Dems majorities in BOTH Houses. They BETTER go after MAGA, or we're coming after them, too.
Yeah man, I'm sure Lucy will let you kick the football this time.
Uhuh, by voting for them again?
I have to delude myself into sleeping at night somehow
Must be getting hard; at this point BlueMaga liberals are having to memory hole the entire Biden administration
