Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

When Empires collapse bad things happen, capitalism is a global Empire. If we let it self destruct we'll destruct with it. It'll collapse, that's certain, but if we just wait then we have no agency over what comes next.

It has to be replaced.

Good luck then. I will be observing these efforts with great interest and some popcorn. Just tell me when the first season starts.

We get it, you're an apathetic obstacle to progress and your descendants will pass judgement on you for that. I hope you continue to stay out of the way, rather than joining other liberals on the fascist side.

Whatever helps you to dismiss things that make you uncomfortable to think about, right?
