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.

Ok so let's try an experiment. Where on the circle are you? And what are you doing to put brakes on the fascists?

Oh, nothing? Yeah... We know.

What was the purpose of this post, do you think? ... Maybe there was one, and maybe that was OP doing something. Maybe next time you'll recognize that.

Contrary to your belief, posting a meme is not 'doing something'.

Lol all you have is trash talking. Even when you get called out, you double down. Meh, if you are having fun keep going, the internet is good for that.

I have been doing mutual aid in minority spaces since the 90s. Teaching classes on survival, self defense, and gardening/animal husbandry since the 2000s.

I'm building an intentional community and giving away land (99 year lease for one dollar) to those who share the inclination towards helping each other without the state where possible. We now have half a dozen people with plans to move up, and I have built the infrastructure up over 4 years to support those people's dreams of being themselves and having a place to be safe doing so.

I grow food, rescue animals, and write letters of character for people who are going to court for small infractions against the capital class.

I support and volunteer at more than a few shelters and abuse centers.

I'm all just trash talk though... Sharing memes is where the real action is.


Note: I am also not against sharing memes. Generating cultural knowledge of how fucked the system is is an important part of progress. What I am against is useless memes that shit on one group for doing nothing while giving a tacit pass to the actual fascists doing the majority of the damage to any progress being made.
