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.

It's why China is going to win. The west is fighting itself and only planning 4 years in advance. And can't puss off the voters or we won't get in again. Then it switches sides and everything gets torn down.
Where China just does it and can plan long term. At this point I don't k kw which system is better. Used to think democracy but it just seems to crumble and honestly most people don't care enough that they are easily controlled.
piss off voters
Do you think voters hate cheap, fast, convenient travel? Do you think they'd just hate freedom healthcare too?
Every system is imperfect when taken to its natural conclusion, that's why most rich countries are moving towards social democracies in which capitalism is generally restrained, but that's a fairly new thing in its own right, and what's to say capitalism won't corrode them in time? Very little, grand scheme of thing. This is why the founding fathers talked about a rolling revolution, needing each generation to see clearly as threats would be constant. Instead we watch Netflix while our decisions are made for us in halls we will likely never walk. Unfortunately I think we are in for the suffering phase, Hindus say we're already in kali yuga, which is the FAFO end of the whole cosmic cycle, hopefully towards the very end if you believe in such things. Personally I think we're just fucked.

Are you really saying you want an authoritarian to make the trains run on time?
Don't you think that's a little unoriginal?

Words hard, apparently.
