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.

This community is full of propaganda designed to get you not to vote. Bitch all you want, just vote too.

Criticism of antidemocratic behavior from the Democratic Party ≠ propaganda telling you not to vote.

Claiming that it is IS, on the other hand, is the equivalent of "vote for the lesser oppressor without comment. Dissent is treason."

We do vote, but we are not democrats so we dont vote for democrats any more than you vote for republicans. They're both trash

until a truly popular 3rd party candidate can honestly get enough votes. we're stuck with the 2 we have. or until people rise up and take down the system

More dumb posts trying to get people not to vote. Amazed people still fall for this bullshit. And op, you suck.

So you believe the people that said voters should not expect a fair election because they are a private corporation and can pick the candidates they want, are worthy of being supported?

  1. Primary progressives in.
  2. General election fascists out.

Do anything else and all you are doing is fucking yourself...and not in a fun way.

Let's get rid of open fascists by electing covert fascists

I surely do. And I want to thank you, OP, for having the guts and grit you do.

Spent some time in the Texas and Louisiana bayous. I had some really good times there. And I've visited other areas, too.
