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.

It's not always targeted at liberals, when we target Republicans you assume we are one of you.

FYI, liberals are one of the villians

Case in point. You’re not talking to a republican you’re talking to someone who generally agrees with you and would otherwise be an ally… but you posted nonsense! Enemies aside your shit makes no sense and yet it had a very SPECIFIC direction…

It’s telling how you reply to me calling out the meta and not the poster who literally spelled out how full of crap your post was.

Everyone is a villain, especially those closest to you on a political spectrum. You offer nothing constructive and of all points you want to make liberals into the boogyman. Downvote, move on, thank you for electing Trump.

It did have a specific direction because that's the route you took by claiming leftists never punch further than Democrats. I was pointing out we do. You see it as a shit post because it triggers your cognitive dissonance that your political choices have been manufactured for you.

FYI, liberals are not closest to socialists and communists on the political scale, they are further now than they were 20 years ago. Today's political scale overlaid with one from 1980 would have liberals to the far right of Reagan, and that's what stems much of their anger at us, that we refuse to move to the right with them.

We are not allies, liberals want to reform systems founded on white supremacy into something they are more comfortable with, something they don't have to face or hear about. We want to dismantle white supremacy and the systems that prop it up.
