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.

The basic principles have not changed and neither have the parties.
And like I said we are not doing the work for you
You are not doing the work yourself. Referencing a document from 1902, not explaining how it is relevant 124 years later, and not describing anything actionable leads to an inevitable conclusion that you only express these things to feel better about yourself without making a material impact. You have had dozens of replies in this post to explain yourself and you haven't come close.
It doesn't matter if you think you shouldn't do the work for other people. You can't even describe your own point of view.
You can piss on other people, but after being prompted time and again to explain why your view is better you have not. Plain and simple.
I never asked you to do anything for me. I asked the other troll what he intended to do besides whine on non-corporate social media. Apparently 'hold his nose and vote dem' was the extent their plans. If you think the GOP and Democrats are the same today as they were 124 years ago, I guess pointing you at historical documents to the contrary wouldn't do any good. There's a few other ancient books that people hold up as the source for all needed answers, that claim the principles are the same. I guess I just don't buy it. In either case. Bye.
