Late Stage Capitalism
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.

Entropy, which requires active effort to prevent and reverse. Machines rust. Bridges crumble. Food rots. Similarly, societies decay into fascism (or something similar). Preventing this decay requires actually holding leaders accountable, and replacing them if they're not serving the people.
Think of governments / economies as machines, and the components of those machines are people. If a spark plug in your car isn't sparking, you replace it. If your governor goes to cancun when your state freezes, you replace him.
In theory, it really shouldn't be this hard.
Right back around to "people just suck." ๐คทโโ๏ธ
