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.

You say "Hungary has evolved its political stance only slightly, as evolution does, and any abrupt ideological change would cause it to sway back ; so I'm cautiously okay with the strong incremental improvement" a little weird.
Well that's only half of what I'm saying.
I'm also implicity asking the question- "Will Magyar's TISZS party follow the same rightward trajectory as Orban's Fidesz, why or why not?"
It seems to me that the similarities between 1990's Fidesz and current-day TISZS are significant, but I do not claim to be an expert in Hungarian politics.
