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.

Lol, imagine saying "godless commie" like it's an insult. Couldn't be me.
We are currently looking at the results of decades of your supposed "pragmatic and realistic steps". Fat lot of good it has done other than to enable the owning class to achieve fascism with minimal and negligible resistance.
Incrementalism doesn't work when the rest of the system is actively undermining what little progress you make faster than you achieve it.
That's literally his username, genius. I'm an atheist who doesn't hate communism; I hate the dictatorship/totalitarianism/imperialism that always seems to be packaged with it. I'm also a realist who actually wants to see a better tomorrow for everyone (except fascists).
Would you like my take on what to do? Swallow that bitter pill of milquetoast democrats, get more progressive supreme court justices nominated, push towards ranked voting to make >2 party victories possible, get rid of citizens united, push out APAIC. NONE of that is going to happen with republicans, which is exactly what you'll get by pushing your fantasy of voting for people who will never win.
