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.

Please don’t run Harris again.

They will, then blame everyone else again when she loses

She will get destroyed in the primaries. She has zero chance of winning once people are paying attention. These results in the tweet are meaningless because unless you're a politics Andy like you and I you have no idea who any of these people are besides Harris. Honestly, I hope she runs. She'll split the vote with other corporate owned Democrats like Newsom.

Realistically, all the corpo owned dems will consolidate power behind their frontrunner and drop out if there is a genuine chance of an outsider winning. No?

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They will. And they'll try to run a spoiler progressive candidate like Elizabeth Warren was in 2020. But they'll still lose.

Looking forward to seeing it happen. :)

Accuse them all of bigotry. As if that would justify it. We nominated a minority we knew couldn't win but it's ok because the voters are bigoted therefore it's justified throwing the election.

The voters are rejecting these candidates for their own qualities, I'm just saying if it was bigotry it wouldn't justify them nominating a doomed to fail candidate in the slightest, and in no way should enable them to stay in power in the party to force another one on us. As super delegates remain in the party.
