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.

The polls show that voters were most motivated by inflation and immigration and that is what resulted in republicans winning

Just one comment ago, you claimed it was Russian bots. Now you're agreeing that it's people feeling economic pressure.

If what you’re saying is true then it disproves the claim that democrats didn’t go far enough left according to voters.

If you give people a choice between Republicans and diet-Republicans, they pick the real one. Would you have them try to outflank republicans more next election?

You’re either illiterate or intentionally misrepresenting what I said. Two comments ago I said Trump won in 2016 because of bots. I stated what the polls are saying for the 2024 elections d how it contracted your claims.

Political ads literally called Biden a radical leftist and that’s what the majority of voters believed as is proven with the election results.
