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.

We reached the same conclusion, I think it's obvious!
Meanwhile, many can't imagine voting without the "we won!!!" cookie, because they can't look at anything logically and they are ignorant of history.
If it wasn't for third parties, my state would STILL be locking thousands of people up. Over 50 years of fighting for legalization, none of it by major parties.
Most people think politics is simply voting, because they're lazy and easy to manipulate. Join your party (any party). Become a precinct committee officer or the equivalent, maybe even collect signatures for local initiatives? There's lots of work to do.
A few people make a big difference when they actually work for a common goal; after all, 95% choose to sit at home and hurl insults on the internet instead.
