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.

It can be both, but Israel is the greater threat. Because nearly all politicians are either openly taking up AIPAC money or they're doing the work for AIPAC for free. And Democrats by and large, take more contributions from AIPAC, From the last election cycle. Seven out of the top 10 were contributions to Democrats

Israel wants the shield of the USA and Russia wants the USA out of NATO essentially. We're in some seriously dangerous times.

I believe the DNC was paid by Zionist "donor pressure" to lose to the candidate who wanted "Israel to finish the job" more passionately than a democrat who would say polite things against genocide.

But the thing about this is Trump may have said Israel to finish the job, but Biden and Harris had already finished it for him. The picture was literally taken Biden's last day in office. Biden proudly proclaimed he was a Zionist throughout his political career.

This image is not enough to show how terrible genocide joe was. We have data about the level of destruction.

  • 70% of all structures in Gaza were damaged or destroyed
  • 92% of all housing units destroyed or damaged
  • 88% of school buildings were damaged or destroyed
  • 80% of key water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities
  • Only 16 out of 36 hospitals were partially functioning, facing critical shortages of fuel, medicine, and clean water.
  • 75% of agricultural land, including orchards and greenhouses, was damaged or destroyed

but the explicit absolutist passion for it, gave Trump all of the campaign money, and DNC money was just for their candidates to stay quiet about it.
