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, anti-communism, 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.

VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO isn't working out.

Only because people didn't. In a binary choice, fuckwits voted the worst choice. This was an intelligence test that America failed.

In identical news, evolution isn't immediate.

Indeed, evolution is not immediate.

USA evolution happens to mean a lower standard of living, shorter lifespans, and exponential government waste, regardless of who is at the helm. So, a devolution.

If Ds won every election, they would still be unable to solve any of these issues, because they're not paid to do so. They're paid to do something else, instead.

Democrats have contributed to that failure with their vote blue no matter who approach, an approach that fails to hold them accountable for any of their actions, which is why we have Democrats that are barely to the left of first-term Trump

It's not working out because the system is not designed that way. It is only a binary choice for those that believe Democrats are different from Republicans, they are both shades of fascism that don't give a fuck about the working class
