Late Stage Capitalism
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.
Not related to the specific post but is it me or does american media treat literally everything as "Breaking News"
Like nothing about this is urgent you can wait until the evening news to talk about it. You'll even have more information by then!
The biggest problem is that CNN and FoxNews are 24/7 "news" channels. So 99%+ of their air time is filler.
In this case, I didn't really fault CNN though. This is the first time in history the White House has been sold as a car dealership, so I understand their use of the tag.
By call it "breaking" they can make up lies and then make a correction on the evening news that no one will pay attention to.
But what else are they going to out on their 24 hour news channel?
