Late Stage Capitalism

3026 readers

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.

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.

Hey this guy's pitch seems to only be "Orange Man Bad".

Whelp, the best possible course of action for humanity, is to resist the guy that says Orange Man Bad.

Argue, write screeds, moo, resist.

Never trust anyone who says Orange Man Bad.

Yup. This is where you should be expending maximal effort.

Because its the devil you know, amirite?

The patient is having a heart attack, and you're not interested in intervening until someone assures you that their chronic kidney issues get addressed. Doesn't matter that the heart will stop and the patient will die, you don't want to hear it until long term renal function is adressed.

I was right, nothing of value.

You can't seem to detect the urgency of punting Trump.

Because of this, your opinions on value are meaningless.
