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.

Oh wow, an actual reply, I’ll commend you for your honesty and kindness for once.
The issue that we, me & BarqsHasBite, witness of the 🇺🇲 zeitgeist is that their praxis for humanitarian issues stem from entirely selfish goals. Thus, the idiom “temporarily embarrassed millionaire/billionaires” comes from the 🇺🇲 Imperial Propaganda that has worked for 250~ years. Including the genocide of Native Americans that have never been reparated, slaves, racism, etc..
My personal challenge for 🇺🇲 sacrifice and actual praxis for humanitarian work has always been their unwillingness to demolish a singular deathcamp, seeing as they keep making more, for a whole generation.
It's fine if you don't want to attribute generalizations on folks, but macro perspectives from praxises can be observed, no? We don't see much selfless praxises in 🇺🇲 done at scales, esp. necessary in its descent to Nazism.
