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.

’Communism is when communal efforts produce results.’

Accidentally correct, you dolt.

Well, America is so communist then, it's not even close. None of their results were the result of any individual, it's always a communal effort.
The only non-communism is a small personal garden, as long as there are more than two people working on something, it's communism because community.
Either that, or the word communism means something very different, you dolt

Yes. All of our successes are the result of communal effort. It’s not communism because the means of production are controlled by a small group of people, who also absorb all of the excess wealth created from the communal efforts.

Reply back please. Your self-owns are cracking me up.

Daamn, you're so close to the point I was making, you can almost taste it. Now you need to actually engage with it in good faith, for real. I don't expect you do though.
