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.

He's not really wrong though. Job interviews are 99% ass kissing, and 1% spinning some bullshit 'weakness' into more ass kissing.
You are god's gift to the workforce. You were born to pour your heart and soul into this company.
Handshake. Leave.
Then the job offer comes - now you talk about pay. You're still the Avenger's superhero tier of employee and all, but the job posting said competitive pay, so you'll at least need a match to your current pay rate. Here, these are my three most recent totally not photoshopped paystubs.
Accept offer.
Fly under radar until you pass whatever probationary period you may have.
School. Kids. Absolute fucking minimum. The interview can suck it.
As cliché as it may seem, you're also interviewing them. You need to know what they expect of you, and what to expect of them. If any of those points are important to you, then you want to know ASAP if you can get them, and if you can't, then you want to get out of there quickly.
If your only goal is getting a job, then sure, make all the compromises you need. If you have any needs besides any job, then you want those needs to be clear.
