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. This includes instance shaming.

Trump: did a bunch of terrible shit

Biden: did nothing

Trump: doing a bunch of terrible ahit

If you can't see how "doing nothing" is preferable to "doing a bunch of terrible shit" then we're at an impasse here.

I'd rather have a donkey trying to pull against me than an elephant. If you can't understand that, you're lost.

Stop viewing the world in imaginary binaries. You can do more than one thing.

Two things can be true at the same time. Biden can "do nothing" and also Biden can support Trump. That's what doing nothing was. You have problem saying that if I don't vote for Harris than it's equivalent to voting for Trump. But you're not willing to say that Biden doing nothing to stop Trump is equivalent to supporting Trump.

Stop believing fairy tales created by white slave owning European colonists who wanted to make sure the masses wouldn't revolt and also that their vote would never really have an impact on their power.
