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.

MODERATORS
Every republican will vote for this and 6 democrats.
Lefties on lemmy will immediately tell you it's the democrat's fault.
Always just enough dems for it to happen. Always in safe seats or not running for reelection, always....
I never really understand these comments. Like what do you all expect exactly? We already think the Republicans are bad. They're the bad guys. They're the villains. We expect them to do the bad thing. They're all fascists who are trying to murder a lot of us.
I just don't understand what you're expecting from me with these kind of comments. Congratulations? I mean saying that most of you don't vote with Republicans is like bragging to me that most of you haven't raped someone today. You want a cookie?
I would, yes. If I need to have not raped anyone today to get it? Well, so be it.
Jesus Christ buddy, why are you sitting there thinking of rape?
There's lots of things you don't understand, like how those "bad-guy" Republicans depend on the "good-guy" Democrats to pass their legislation as a matter of routine.
If you sit at the table with rapists, aren't you a rapist? Or nazi. Whatever.
They're the same guys, and those labels demonstrate why this simple "good guy/bad guy" routine is so successful (and has been since the days of Rome).
To be fair to the lemmy leftists in this hypothetical, often when a few dems break rank, that means leadership picked the fewest, safest ones to take the heat. AIPAC and centrist Dems are problematic. (Although lemmy leftists will shit on all Democrats because they want Republican whackjobs to run this country into the ground.)
Leftists want our party to stop supporting genocide.
And if we cant have that, then yes we have no choice but to burn it all down.
Why is "no genocide" such an awkward ask in your eyes? why is it so much to ask from dems?
That is absolutely what we want. Thank you for understanding, yes.
As a uniparty they alway find just enough votes for their legislation to pass.
those darn democrats!
