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.

I'm happy to rage at how terrible Democrats are. I just also want people to recognize how outwardly horrible Republicans are. I think of Democrats as capitalistic opportunists that see an illogically frothing-mouthed monster, and developed a profit means to fight it forever through virtue signalling.

By all means...that monster shouldn't exist. Not by votes anyway. It has no logical means by which to exist, and it's a cancer not just to Americans but the whole world. No matter how anyone explains it, I'll never understand how people keep voting for them.

Too many comments asking us to vote for the "good cop.". Yes, one cop is a raging asshole punched you in yhe face, and the other cop said "im sorry he's an asshole, here have a cigarette". THEYRE BOTH TRYING TO PUT YOU IN PRISON DONT TALK TO EITHER OF THEM.

Feels like a lot of people are just fed up with the whole system at this point.

And most of them are expecting the same system that has failed them to be the one that's going to rescue them.

Every fucking day it’s anothe democrat texting me, begging me for more money I don’t have.

I don’t have $5 you fucks. You stole it when you raised my taxes, gave me shit, and then bailed out more billionaire cronies.
