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.

That's a wildly trumpian mischaracterization of what happened.
Obviously a status quo is going to do what it can to protect its power, just like the RNC stacked the odds against trump in 2015. But we still couldn't get enough progressives to do the actual, non whining online work of showing up and voting.
It astounds me that the group that can't even muster enough support to go and outvote the liberal side of the electorate somehow thinks they'll rally folks to a revolution. It's goddamn childish. Show up, vote, win elections.
If your party is going to interfere in its own primaries to make sure its chosen candidates have an advantage, don't call yourself the democratic party, because that's not democratic.
