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.

CEO's occasionally go to jail for fraud, have connections and resign fairly regularly. The average employee doesn't.

Oh no they resign?! Get real. And the rate at which employees are punished for doing pretty much anything while the laws do not protect them is near criminal enough. In the US, being jobless is a legitimate threat on your health and safety but in many places you can be fired just for the hell of it. Even if you have a good reason, there are a myirad of ways they will attempt to supress you.

CEOs don’t got to jail for hurting working people, they go to jail for pissing off other rich people.
