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.

He's moving heaven and Earth to block one time 5% tax on billionaires. Fuck this asshole. I can't believe he actually thinks he should be the president of the United States. What a joke.

I'm also really flabbergasted by the fucking dipshit so-called "progressives" who were thinking that the billionaire Steyer was the heir apparent for governor of California.

They don't care about them being a slimy asshole as long as he's their slimy asshole

Billionaires need to be taxed at every level of government so much more.

I've been wondering what the democratic party stands for lately. I guess I got my answer. No taxes on billionaires.

Hardly a betrayal when he's always been the enemy

This is shocking behavior from Greasy Gavin, a man who amplified and legitimatized fascist voices like Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon on his podcast without any meaningful pushback. I'm sure they, and the billionaires, appreciate his patronage.

Do not vote for this motherfucker, and also understand that if he's successful killing the billionaire tax and becomes the Dem nominee for POTUS, this shit will sink his candidacy. (Not that it matters, as his personal wealth will be secure and have grown significantly.)

The VBNMW trash will overlook the Kirk thing, the billionaire tax thing, all of it. 'Most important election' bullshit

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

You're right.
