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.

Um.

You know they have camps over there now, people are kidnapped off the streets and can not be traced by legal means.

I agree about the no clue horrors part, but they've gone a long way towards it already.

I know. This literally is the tip of the ice berg. If you think Nazis were bad because of camps you utterly underestimate what happened there.

Edit: “Facism is on the rise there", I agree. "NS Germany was like the current US," is ignorant.

Uh, the Nazis literally used US decisions to force sterilize low iq people as a defense at the Nuremberg trials.

WW2 was absolutely a case of the us being evil, and the Nazis being so much more evil that they had to be stopped, that doesn't mean there were not similarities, and we should definitely not write out that chapter of history the way we have

They got the eugenics part from the US.
The Arian race was the German version of the US Nordic race.

Later on? Yea the US is absolutely not there. Early stages? I don't see why not.

Ah okay, that's why I was getting mixed messages. Thanks for stating that clearer!
