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.

Buddy... Voting and bureaucracy and legal processes are slow. Revolution is quick. But what safeguards are you proposing and preparing for a revolution?
Because I gotta say, you are saying nothing helpful to anyone. No guides. No groups. No information. You're just, and I hate to say this, some dumbass on the internet spouting nonsense. Your ramblings do not get you to your goal. Rethink yourself.
They are only slow to prohibit progress. Slow it down enough so voters can move on the the next they they are outraged about while providing empty vessels to prevent immediate change that will threaten the system
Do you not know how our candidates are chosen? Like, there is a caucus and primary system that exists that let's us choose our candidates. My candidates are the same ones pushing for mural aid structures. My candidates are the ones setting up leftist groups. My candidates are filming ICE, dropping off groceries, feeding the hungry, housing the unhoused.
I'm sorry if your elections aren't like that, but if you get involved in your local politics, you'll find these slow progress makers that you seem to think don't exist.
The US primary is used to manufacture your approval of their chose candidate
Such a collection of cliches and platitudes....are you going to say anything of substance at some point? Do you have a coherent plan of action... Or is it business as usual on Lemmy here?
There is substance, but liberals stop listening when they hear the word no
