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.

This country is so politically divided that no amount of Facebook memes is going to change a Democrat voter to a Republican or vice versa. Democrats have a history of propping up pieces of shit as candidates and then are shocked when people don't support their pieces of shit based on them having a shitty history and then blame Russia.
And Republicans have a history of blatant lies; your argument is irrelevant, though.
Fully a third of the country is neither Republican or Democrat. THAT'S what decides elections, not how many are 'red' vs 'blue' (in fact, for many years now, Republicans are the minority, and by your logic would never win anywhere).
Again, your assertion that social media-based disinfo campaigns don't do anything is just not true. Like at all.
A Republican will tell you that they do not like Mexicans. Democrats will say we're going to protect them from deportation and that they are safe, then deport them anyway. A Republican will tell you they do not like the LGBTQ community. Democrats will embrace them while calling themselves an ally, then then make them the punchline whenever they are faced was people they don't agree with.
Lol
A Republican will tell you they're going to lower your taxes, then raise them; that they're going to reduce government size to save you money, but it's actually to make corruption easier and cost you more.
We could go on. We have no heroes in government, but fuck's sake, man, one party are openly fascist.
But whatever. Go play on Truth* Social.
I know liberals prefer their fascism covert. It allows them to go to brunch and not have to think about the crimes being committed in the country against the working class.
