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,' etc.

It's a bit absurd to me to compare the charges to the end result.
What are some examples of school shooters in a capital punishment state (or who were charged federally) whose prosecutors did not try to pursue a death sentence?
Dylann roof, though not a school shooter exactly, was charged federally and is gonna be executed
Right, I was asking for a school shooter whose prosecutors did NOT try for death sentence. That's the weird implication made by the post's image.
The age/race/economic level/crimes/charges/verdicts graph is one that is…intriguing in a scientific sense and likely necessary to show in crayon picture form to the next administration, but god DAMN do I not want to be the statistician that researches all that.
