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.

MODERATORS
How can you own and control if you have to ask that question?
Working people cannot organize themselves. If they could, the majority would not be stuck on Reddit, Facebook or X.
Of course it's frustrating but how could one overcome those limits?
Working people cannot organize themselves en masse because the ruling class actively prevents it.
Clearly, the working class is capable of organizing, otherwise unions wouldn't exist.
Often when people start getting too successful at organizing the working class, they get murdered for it.
What are the barriers to the working class organizing themselves?
Working is usually a big part. Distance is another. Police state...we're on the edge.
Are those barriers fundamental, or can different conditions remove them?
The distance is definitely. Without the federal ties, even in the colonial days each region was its own country and actions due to distance. The rest is fundamental now because that's how it's been set up over decades, both for profitability and for control. Sometimes they give a bit to give the image of change, and that settles the public down for a while.
