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.

You're not making the argument you think you are. The fact that America is spending the most money on these programs but are still near the bottom in terms of actual benefits to citizens when ranked against other first world countries is a bad thing, not a good thing.
We spend the most and receive the most. Probably to greedy lobbyists and administrators. I wanna see that money go to nurses and actual healthcare
I making the argument that the picture is stupid propaganda. The seed of truth is that we manage to have the world best military with only 13% of our budget expenditure.
