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, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. 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.

If your bank is charging you for having a low balance, then you need to change banks. There's tons of banks and credit unions out there out there that don't have a minimum balance fee. Some banks won't even charge you for overdrafting. Stop being loyal to a company that goes out of its way to screw you over.

Don't use a bank for personal finance, period. Find a non-profit credit union. You'll have lower fees, better interest on loans and higher interest on savings, and better customer service from a financial institution that's not allowed to have shareholders mining you for profit.
