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.

Fascists: You have no rights, your sole purpose is to enrich the oligarchy with your very life.
Democrats: We disagree with the Fascists, but we aren’t gonna do fuckall about it. Sorry.

Where is the lie? What did democrats actually do to prevent fascism?
Wrong question.
Democrats have voted and even implemented plenty of good into the country (ACA, Inflation Reduction Act, CFPB), despite heavy opposition.
Ask the fascists why they're being fascists.
Ask why conservatism maps so cleanly to fascism.
Ask why 75+ million fascists voted for a fucking fascist and his Nazi friends.
Not a wrong question. Democrats have done so many good things that Americans keep worsening their living conditions every fucking year, just look at house pricing, the state of education and infrastructure and healthcare, or any fucking thing else. I don't care about a list of policy names if it didn't translate into meaningful material gains for people.
Republicans may be worse sure, but I'd rather not get slapped at all instead of having to choose whether the following 4 years it will be 10 or 11 times
