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.

"no boss ever has said, 'ah, now that these machines have production more efficient, i guess i can let my workers work less.' only class struggle shortens labor time."

< sigh >

Worker-owned-businesses make decisions differently.

Simply imagine being 1st in a owners/managers/disposable-wage-slaves operation,

then imagine being in a completely worker-owned business.

Consider the totally-different paradigm of decisions, rooted in totally-different motivation for those decisions.

False-dichotomy isn't The Answer that we've been programmed to believe it to be.

Compete-against the money-leveraged-parasitism paradigm properly, & different-results must become inevitable.

Motivation really is significant.

Consistent pattern-of-action really is significant.

Such things, through years, do build different civilizations/societies.

Downvote away, for my violating of ideology, but truth is truth, & fact is fact.

This is neither truth or fact
