Late Stage Capitalism
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.

yeah ive def voted in a ranked choice election with way too many candidates. it was super annoying researching all of them, even after filtering out the republicans. i think having more parties would make that much easier though. it would also be super helpful if there was an easily accessible database the candidates were required to fill out in order to qualify for running. make them enter basic background info, a blurb on a number of major policy positions, party affiliation, endorsements, that kind of thing. would make it much easier to filter out candidates.
i dont know about those other methods, ill have to read up on them. honestly anything that makes more than 2 parties work would be acceptable to me.
