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.

MODERATORS
Yep, they do, and this is where they have to make a tough decision to leave their family and fight for themselves or suck it up and stay. Too many say "I want to leave" but don't have the balls to do what needs to be done. It's hard, I'm not arguing that, but if you actually want it, you can do it. All the niceties aren't handed to you on a platter - there will be sacrifices. Only those with the stomach for it will go further. The others will be sucked into the US's fascist dictatorship and only have themselves to blame for staying. I'm done with "oh it's too hard to leave" when it's not. Oh, your emotions will get hurt. People be sad? Fuck that. Fuck you. If you want a better life, you leave. It's not hard if you really want it. If you don't, suck it up. Stop being a pussy and get your shit together and leave.
Your solution is to leave, while some people don't want to leave either by constraints or stubbornness.
Not leaving doesn't mean they lack "balls/clit" to handle it. I'm not leaving because I think we can push to make things better.
Leaving is a personal solution, but it only makes things better for the individual. Staying and supporting progressive moves is a solution too, that relies on people coming together.
And good for you. Totally support your approach. And your not saying you want to leave and that's great. Fully respect that.
I don't respect those who say they want to leave and won't for insert excuse here reasons but also don't even try. They won't do the bare minimum and left with the option of not leaving, won't do what you're doing either. It's the apathy whilst complaining that pisses me off.
A lot of people cannot leave for to no education and no money
Yep, being under/uneducated and poor (and sick) is a restriction to life. I wonder if that was the plan all along...
Of course it was btw, the government has been purposely trying to stop people becoming educated, healthy or wealthy for decades as that makes them much easier to control.
