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.

Okay, but you've just described virtually every job listing. I could point to three, at a minimum, tied to my own job. And my job (at least after 20+ years in the workforce) is the best I've ever had.
So much of this is just HR code-speak for "We needed to put something in the advertisement and just cribbed from another ad we saw elsewhere."
I wish HR would let the departments write their own job ads. Also, HR should be the last to see the applicant. Not the first.
Is that a joke? There's no fucking way me, or my team, or my manager, have any desire, or time, to sift through hundreds of resumes to fill a role. Even dealing with the few that make it through initial screenings is cumbersome.
As long as the base requirements are properly established by the team, and HR ought to be capable of filtering down to good-great candidates for any given position.
