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, 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.

How did 50 million die?

1 in 4 live in poverty, the highest percentage of any other community. Poverty caused by capitalism

estimated deaths due to colonialism and genocide

Two million slave trade deaths in route to the US

You're operating under the assumption that these clowns understand that the genocide was a generational effort.

That is not a good assumption.

These people don't even know what "per year" means.

So are we talking about worldwide or the United States? The chart says the United States so I am assuming we are focusing on the US here.

My links only address the US
