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.

all things the Democrats didn't give us

Democrats gave it and Trump reversed it.

But you like it because you "sent a message" because "Kamala didn't earn your vote."

Trump is what you wanted. Trump is what you got.

you have no idea how I voted. but lying about whether I got student loan forgiveness isn't scoring you any points, nor is your bad faith accusation that I, or anyone who didn't vote for Trump, wanted trump.

but lying about whether I got student loan forgiveness

re-Read the thread. You didn't make that claim and neither did I.

The thread is about policy, not you personally.

Basic human rights and dignity is what we wanted and the DNC didnt offer it so I did my best to not lift a finger to help the DNC this last election, after a lifetime of straight blue voting.

And I'll do it again if they keep running the worst candidates they think they can get away with. I'll take the quick death over the slow one, thanks. If that makes you mad, great, I'm past mad.
