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.

Eventually you will see they use marginalized communities as disposable political pawns. We saw those cracks start to form with Harris. OUR acceptance in society has always come in peaks and troughs, we have been sliding into a trough for about 12 years and soon those you thought were allies will turn their back on you.
Republicans have only been in a position to be openly bigoted because spineless Dems that keep shifting to the right with them have allowed it to happen. Fucking Democrats cheered on Biden's RFMA, which places us back into a position of second class citizen once Obergefell gets overturned.
Democrats will pretend to care as long as they find you useful
You can't claim to be a leftist and advocate for aligning with capitalists

There is no alliance between liberals and leftists because we don't want the same things, we are on the opposite end of the political spectrum. Democrats are the covert fascist to the open Republican one
You can't claim to be a leftist while trying to align with capitalists.
