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.

Not to be that guy, but you can very well be a leftist, hell even a full on communist, and be reformist, you don't need to pull a Robespierre (ironically a Liberal btw) LARP to change the world.
Also, dual power, what a fever dream, do you really think that any sovereign entity is going to allow an alternate sovereign entity to exist within the same space? That so absurd you may as well start believing in the Libertarian "subscription governments" because essentially it's the same thing. Either you reform the current system into Socialism, or you roll the dice and pull a revolution, problem is, that no one knows exactly who will come out on top during those.
