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, 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.

Compare the average life in China vs India, and how it's changed in the last 75 years or so. You can do the same with Russia and Cuba.
One side is getting a hell of a lot more than "crumbs", and they haven't even achieved communism yet.

Russia not only isn't socialist, it doesn't even claim to be: it is especially capitalists. How is it that you are so confident to talk on a subject you clearly don't even now the basics of?
Putin's Russia is basically christofascist capitalism with russian characteristics, sooo nice self-own I guess
Russia hasn’t been communist for a generation so what’s your point? Yeltsin sold the Union off to European and Anglosphere neocolonial plunderering.
