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.

By your logic, if you gave me four quarters for my dollar bill, you'd then complain that I made out with the "full value" of your quarters, and treat it like I stole your coins, instead of the mutually-agreed-upon trade that actually occurred.
Even if you gave me five quarters and I gave you one dollar bill, an uneven trade in my favor, I didn't end up with the "full value" ($1.25) of your money. I ended up plus only 25 cents.
Learn what "full" means.
You are struggling so hard. Just go read some basic Marx and come back.
It's very amusing for you to pretend I'm struggling while failing to grasp my very simple analogy.
