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.

Both sides argument does not apply this round. This is different.
They apply in the sense that the Dems do not present any compelling opposition to the Repubs. Capitalism is in crisis, and you have on the one side, fascists, and on the other side neoliberals. As far as the neoliberals are concerned, there is no crisis. The fascists at least admit there are problems (they have all the wrong answers, obviously), but what solutions can neoliberals offer if they won't even admit to the problems?
Yes, they are certainly guilty of sticking their collective heads in the sand. Most but not all of them.
