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.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of arguments like OP is coming from non-americans who don't understand how to organize from scratch, with paranoid people, and neighbors you can't really get to know because everybody's on a yearly lease.
Like, okay, sure I'll go punch a cop. Then I get shot, and my death is supposed to... make a magic anime shimmer and lift the evil from the land? Going on strike without a union is just called getting fired.
I don't understand how direct action is supposed to work if we don't build the community first?
