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.

Why stop at two things? You could also be praying, buying crystals, and never changing your lucky underwear
Because those don't do anything. Voting imperially, factually, undeniable makes some difference, you already admitted that.
Oh yes, I agree that voting makes some difference. But it's never stopped a war in 250 years. It's never stopped a genocide in 250 years. It's never liberated the working class in 250 years. It didn't give women the right to vote. It didn't give black people the right to vote. Honestly, I can't think of a single major policy that voting ever effected.
Oh wait. I know why I think that. Because it's been empirically proven: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/perspectives-on-politics/article/abs/testing-theories-of-american-politics-elites-interest-groups-and-average-citizens/62327F513959D0A304D4893B382B992B
Cool, thanks for agreeing with me :)
