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. 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.

He's not saying all morons are the same he's just saying you're a moron, and you're making his case for him

I’m pointing out that he is stereotyping me as a liberal because of the facts I stated. He’s doing this so he can use strawman arguments based on the stereotype of a liberal.

And you’re just hurting my feefees

I'd peg you as more of a conservative tbh. In any case, completely ignorant of what left means.

My ideology is not stereotypical and I think that way of thinking ignores nuance.

In any case, completely ignorant of what left means.

That’s funny considering your username.

So you begin this thread by saying Democrats were too left/progressive and now we must disregard labels because there's no nuance.

Not sure why I'm bothering to engage tbh, enjoy your worldview.

I never said democrats were too left/progressive. Is that an intentional strawman or just accident?

If you’re not going to engage in good faith then yes, please don’t engage.
