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.

Ehhh... Not every single issue. He's always trying to do the right thing, and sometimes he lets his biases creep in (like his work with first responders coloring how he views the police in general).
But I think it's clear that his heart is always in the right place, and he's always interested in discussing things with people who know what they're talking about to get to the truth, even if that truth isn't what he originally thought it may have been.
And yeah, that would be better than anything else we've ever had. Obama tried to portray himself as being this way, but it was mostly just advertising. Jon is the real deal.
