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.

Ok

I get that.

I really for sure get that.

But there's an election happening I'm not not going to let Republicans take office while I still can vote.

So while we're all gearing up for the downfall of the American government, I'm going to vote for anyone who's got a chance of winning against Republicans.

It's not going to magically fix the system. I'm not under any pretense it'll fix this mess.

But I'm going to do everything I can, and that includes voting.

I will be forced to vote for AIPAC and genocide too. And then our slim margins will always mean "you don't want another trump in here!"

Maybe it will wake people up when no one from MAGA is really punished or he doesn't accept the results and there is no one to enforce the law. I think we will just reenact everything from Iraq again.

This can't go on
