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.

The old good cop bad cop routine really works on you eh. Can't see past it and you're incapable of having a proper conversation about the issue. You get offended, you think it's so obvious... I would kindly suggest that you look at the USA's & allies' foreign policy trajectory historically over the years. If you manage to look at the facts you will see that no matter which party is in power, the goals remain the same.
Watch how AOC and the like will not get elected and instead you will get a Newsom character running instead. Happened with Bernie and Hillary before and it will happen again.
AOC is just the new Bernie the Sheepdog, controlled oppositon
Who would you like to see run for the dems?
Dems as a party need to be abandoned. Liberals scream FPTP then refuse to support better candidates to get them FPTP.
Nobody, that is a regime party and can't be fixed. It needs to go.
You need genuine 3rd parties, not these astroturfed faces pretending to be leftist keeping this theater going since forever.
Fair enough, but is there anyone after Nader?
There have been socialist candidates.
It's up to you if you want to vote for them or support another one, anyone can theoretically run.
You will have to get past the blue MAGA who during your last election fought harder to get them thrown of the ballots than fighting red MAGA.
Very telling.
