Late Stage Capitalism

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.

Oh good so I don't have to worry about all this ultra-processed food, non-walkability, 3+ ton commuter vehicles, guns, de-regulation, and nazis around me in the US? Sweet.

I've posted recently about how very different things feel in a place like scandinavia versus the US. Man, I wish all we had to do was pass universal healthcare. That is a HUGE one of course, but it is a symptom and not the cause.

The cause is something like... respect for human dignity, or lack thereof. That goes for the entire culture, not just the government. Also important to not overlook: respect for human dignity includes oneself.
