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.

I think that this bad behavior stems from memories of trauma. Inherited, generational, even genetic.

Imagine surviving a literal famine. Where the only people who didn't die horribly were those who fucked over their neighbors.

It's the kind of thing that leaves a mark.

The solution might be therapy. A year shrooming in the woods.

Surely, the difference will be donated to a fire victims fund. In this way, landlord steals from the rich to redistribute to the poor.

This is bad but it’s rich people fighting rich people - kind of as it should be.

Maybe the fire needs to spread to some areas.
