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.

I'm stuck right there. Nominally...in the name? or something like this:
Or historically named/labeled socialist? Or current Democratic Socialist countries? And what type of press freedom? Seems like it would be a semester class in college to answer that, and would veer into philosophy at a minimum.
I don't know why Greenland is pink in that picture. The liberals (right of center) won the latest election.
Ugh, the color choices for 'former' versus 'socialist ruling party' are impossible for color blind folks...
You think the press is more free in Russia than the US?
Closer every day
You people are so funny.
Great retort bud.
TBF they weren't allowed to learn about the Iron Curtain in Russia and they aren't allowed to talk about it in China.
Not more tankie hanky panky! Is this tankie in the thread with us rn?
The guy who got his knickers in a twist over me referring to "nominally socialist" countries would count in my book.
I still don't know word "nominally" is supposed to mean, even after being awarded certificate of competency in a scientific field related to the mathematics. Guess that's politic speak for ya (me)
There you go.
