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.

And this proves you're blue MAGA.

And this proves that you were a very slippery baby. Meanwhile, I'll keep my elbows up.

It's all just a sports game to you.

You want Trump out just for the sake of having Trump out.

Jesus H Fucking Christ. You are stating a goal that every human with empathy should have.

There's no plan beyond that.

Close the Concentration Camps. Prosecute the Epstein Class. Hunter down and prosecute all ICE agents. Smash Palantir. Smash Data centers. Implement universal Healthcare.

Speak for your own limited lack of vision.

There's no accountability beyond that. It's all just "get their guy out and my guy in."

The goal is to put an end to a fascist regime, instead of letting it gain momentum. Holy fuckity fuck you're extra comfy with the status quo.

Your goal isn't to exact certain policy goals, as otherwise that would be your number one priority.

Stopping fascism. The fascism, and the act of stopping it. Op stay the ascism fay.

My number one priority is stopping fascism.

That thing that I want again: stopping fascism.

Personally, if Trump pulled a reverse Fetterman tomorrow, had a stroke, and suddenly became progressive, I wouldn't want him out of office. Getting him out is a means to an end, not an end in itself.

When the time to act decisively comes, just stay out of the way.

You have no actual plans or rebuttals aside from "orange man bad". You shame those who criticize the outcomes (or lack thereof) of liberals who wield power from this insanity. Trump alone is not fascism and his death or removal from office alone will not fix the conditions that allowed him and his sick depraved sycophants from getting into power in the first place.

I expect nothing of value back as a response. I hope you screech more about the concentration camps while simultaneously sucking on the boots of liberals who helped quietly build them. I hope you tell me to vote for more fettermans and sinemas who gleefully kneecap our progress while pointing at the over-the-top style of the GOP they act as a ratchet for. I hope you tell me to be thankful the boiling pot of water will only go up 1 degree instead of 5, and that making it go down in temperature is wishful thinking. I need to know that the "sane" folks like you have it all figured out and that's why my entire life has been American decline and end-stage capitalist hell. Just keep doing what we've been doing and it will be fine.

I'm trans, have trans friends, have immigrant friends, and date an immigrant trans woman I am desperately trying to protect. I hope that you, like so many liberals before you, tell me to "enjoy the camps". Show me those true colors.
