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.

Your little AI somation of what a report says is not facts/evidence.

I told you what's there and where you can verify it. You can go find it or not. I'm not doing homework for you, and it's not in an easily copy/pastable format. So go look it up yourself or stop whining.

SHOW ME THAT 'RECORD' you are referring to

I just did. It's on you to verify that what I--and every actual journalist (including journalists in Europe) who's looked at it--am saying is in there. I'm not following your moving goalposts anymore. Believe it or don't, but the truth (as well as we can know it) is available to you. It can be known.

Trump [...] wild and agressive and dangerous

Look, you're not going to need to convince me that Trump is a dangerous person in this whole misadventure.

the embarrassing conspiracy level claim that he is a Russian agent

I never said that he was a Russian agent. I said that the Russian government committed election fraud to get him elected; there's a big difference. Was it to destabilize the US and weaken its power on the world stage? Maybe. If so, it worked. Was it to get a sympathetic ear into the White House? Maybe. If so, it probably didn't work. Was it to install a dangerous and chaotic leader as a pretext for war? Quite possibly! and if so, it's going swimmingly.

The US is circling the drain with or without foreign influence.

No argument from me there. This would've happened eventually, Russia or no Russia. I'm just saying they sped things up.
