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.

Wait, it's 2026 and you don't know how Wikipedia works? Cheap and embarrassing

You just have to scroll down, and then you get to:

There are significantly more of them, too; 85 in all. So many that Lemmy doesn't let me paste them all in one comment. And this is only from the 2024 election. To quote someone insufferable:

I'm sure this will be the last I hear from you LOL.

NYT, WaPO,etc.....
LOL those are your credible US regime sources?
Man you're a clown.
Also you're switching accounts again, Eglin Airforce Base incompetence

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 1 points 26 minutes ago

US regime sources

Oh, you're one of those. So when you say "credible source," what you really mean is "source I already agree with." Meaning that, to you, there is no credible source. I guess that means no, there is no proof that will satisfy you. Cool. You've just religioned your way into unfalsifiability, I guess.

you're switching accounts again

Sure, believe what you want to believe. Clearly I have multiple sock puppet accounts on Lemmy to have random arguments with people about whether or not Russia did something to affect the US Presidential Election. I can't honestly comprehend why you think I might be doing that.

Read the fucking Mueller Report. Like, actually read it.

Or is that not a good enough source either?

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world -1 points 6 hours ago

It's a US REGIME SOURCE.
Even worse than the regime press mouthpieces.
Obviously far from impartial.
And I'm not wasting my time reading all that.
But even then, If you actually read it I'm sure you can show me EVIDENCE for just one of all these claims I'm prepared to hear it.
As I asked 3 times and you failed to provide it 3 times.
