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.

I don't think McVeigh was a terrorist. I think he was a patriot.
I'm not condoning violence. But I want to point out that Millennials first rebelled against the fed during Occupy Wall Street, and it accomplished nothing because it was peaceful. 15 years later, no amount of peaceful attempts to change things for the better has worked.
Every time there is an attempt to form organized resistance, alphabet agencies infiltrate the movement and their favorite thing to do is have one of their undercover agents begin violent protest and that lets their goons swoop in to conduct mass arrests of all the people affiliated with the movement that weren't acting out violently. Just being associated with the violent guy (who is an undercover cop) is enough to get them arrested. I think that's exactly what they did on January 8th because a number of violent protestors walked away without charges, but a lot of people who were there and just walked into the capitol building got slapped with multiple charges and are still struggling with legal battles years later.
The intelligence agencies have cracked rule by mass psychology and the above is just one tool they use to maintain control. The American mindset that "socialism is evil and capitalism is good" is another tool they use to stifle rebellion. They no doubt have agents reading this right now and are probably adding my user account to a list.
So where do we go? JFK said if you make peaceful revolution impossible you make violent revolution inevitable. But at this point I think the CIA, NSA, and FBI have basically proven him wrong. I don't see how a revolution of any kind is able to get up and running in modern day USA.
If you're interested in learning more about how they control dissent, give this documentary a watch. It's long but is really good. https://youtu.be/eJ3RzGoQC4s
