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.

The state, yes, the people, no.

It's the people supporting the state. These are the same people that setup picnics hillside to watch bombings in Gaza. The same people that overwhelming support the forced relocation of Palestinians.

I mean the US in general is losing support for the Israeli state, but it has little to do with the Israeli people in general. The Israeli and US governments keep trying to say that people being against the actions of the Israeli government is antisemitic and using that as an excuse to crack down on protests. It is not antisemitic because the Israeli government is not the equivalent to the entirety of the Jewish peoples, they're just another authoritarian government.
