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.

All sound and fury, signifying nothing.
The term is direct action but clearly many people around here get triggered by the idea of taking it

I am sure your government will save you tho
I get that you’re mad, we all are, but you’re attacking people in the same sinking boat as you simply for not having options, perfectly outlined by your condescending (and contradictory to your rhetoric) use of the word “pleb.” You’re not directing your anger towards the people causing the problem and you’re not attacking the actual issue, you’re just shooting yourself in the foot and victim blaming. Aim higher.
This discussion is about peoples consumption patterns and how to fight anti consumer behavior.
You are having a meltdown at the idea of peasants having any agency and that's telling about the mind set you have.
You don't care about practical steps people can take. Focus here is on endless whining about how daddy hurt u, god for I'd you fight back
If you want me to shit on the parasite class, I do ton of that too. In fact that's mostly my schick on fedi.
Yeah, I’m the one having a meltdown, sure.
Don’t break an arm jerking yourself off, there, you great savior of man.
Clearly idea that people can act against the regime got you triggered dear
Sure.
