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. This includes instance shaming.

So Trump doesn't pretend to represent people? Literally his whole election ran on saying he was going to represent every particular voting block, even of those he's now deporting.
Seems like the guy is stuck in "grass is always greener" type of mindset, except if instead of focusing on it being greener focusing on it not being as green instead. Thing is, because of shitty bipartisan systems, you will always have this. You will have the party that games the systems and appeals to whatever easy low effort populisms there are, and there is the party that has to encompass the rest of a literal world of different viewpoints and ideologies and try to find the compromise which will never be perfect for anyone in particular. It's why they always have to throw out labels to see what sticks, since no label really represents Democrats. Not all Democrats are "woke", "gays", or "antifa".
Blame the game, not the player. Who is more likely to reform the game in a positive way, and who is more likely to reform the game in a negative way? Get rid of your shitty two (or really one party, depending on how much you've been indoctrinated/informed, since the other one is Satan incarnate) party system.
