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.

America is 3% of the world population, yet has 25% of the worlds prison population. America runs on prison labor and debt slavery
Nope, this isnt a labor supply solution.
This is just for the love of the game.
Unfortunately it is a little of both. So many of our industries are subsidized by prison labor that it would be very disruptive for them to change it. Absolutely not saying we shouldnt. Just that that is why the centrist fucks wont move a muscle on prison reform
Obligatory
Probably higher now.
