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.

Fascism is not the result of stupidity but the result of capitalist crisis.
Fascism is what happens when social safety nets are removed, wages are withheld, education is withered, healthcare is not obtainable, and transportation crumbles.
I’d amend that to say fascism is what happens when capitalists allow those things to proliferate, then get scared that people will fight back. While fascism is indeed a petit-bourgeois ideology that arises from that class’s reaction to capitalist crisis, it’s important to remember that it is the bourgeois who are fascism’s beneficiaries and who are the first to foment it during crises.
