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 think it's not that "the dems" will save us, but that the structural flaws of our system mean that progressives getting into power at the federal level need to do so by winning democrat primaries.
Don't expect the AIPAC Democrats to play fair!
That's fair, probably the most effective course of action at the moment. That's how the Leaders We Deserve PAC is operating I believe. Still within the two party system getting people to vote and running as democrats.
I guess when I say "dems" I mean "establishment democrats". Like Biden, Kamala, Clinton etc.
