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.

"both sides bad"
this is literally ignoring all the context. please try to practice some intellectual honesty
Could you explain the context? I am clearly missing something, because most of what I see here reads like dems are the greater threat.
Here's an example: "They are not equally bad, the side that poses as an ally and a protector of is the marginalized while actively causing them harm is by far worse."
the first clause is the context: "Why do I criticize Democrats'
"Why do I criticize Democrats" "...because both parties are terrible in every way, but the dems are terrible in a bonus way too." I don't see how that first bit changes the meaning of the rest.
Do you consider the two parties to be equally bad, or do you consider one to be worse than the other?
this is the most intellectually dishonest reading you could possibly make. kindly, leave me alone
