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.

If you are paying attention none of our lives are getting easier. The one you are trying to claim is applying bandaids and attending the wound are the ones that caused the cut.

You don’t stick a knife in a man’s back 9 inches and pull it out 6 inches and say you are making progress. If you stick a knife in my back 9 inches and pull it out 6 inches, there’s no progress. If you pull it out all the way, then that’s still not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made. And they haven’t pulled the knife out, much less healed the wound. They won’t even admit the knife is there

So would you rather the knife be pulled out or would you like to be stabbed 20 more times? This both sides nonsense fucking reeks of being planned opposition, especially with how you treat posting about it like it's your fucking job. Were it just a random account saying this, I wouldn't even think to make that assumption, but I see you here all the time beating the same shitty drum.

Like, is your entire personality just stirring up shit with "edgy" takes on Western society. Wake up, have your coffee, and immediately flock to the keyboard to talk about how much imperialism sucks and how everyone that lives in it sucks (except of course for you, the special little boy)
