Capitalism is massively dependent on coercing labor through the deprivation of basic human needs.

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,' Tankie, etc.

In DC. My state has been fighting harder against this stuff than almost anyone else.
If Life is an inalienable right, and food is an undeniable necessity for human life, then it should be self-evident that food is a human right.
We're dealing with a society that doesn't understand what inalienable means, and especially the leaders.
The US is a shithole country.
Also the only country where children don't have rights.
Also they don't recognize International Court of War Crimes.
You'd think Americans would be on board considering how much they eat
Americans who have any political voice (right wingers these days) have plenty to eat and hate the poor. They prefer them hungry as some sort of punishment for ending up needing the help. We have Ayn Rand capitalism in our blood.
Ayn Rand, who died impoverished eating through public assistance hated the poor and made it morally acceptable for Americans to hate their poor. She thought altruism was evil. She was also a zionist who thought Arabs were "primatives" https://mondoweiss.net/2012/08/ryan-said-to-be-meeting-with-adelson/

Yes but they only want themselves to eat, not others.
They'd love to starve a bunch of their fellow americans, too

I am really sick of the US. It’s never been great, but I really hate this overtly celebrating evil regime today.
Of course they did. You know what else should be a human right ?
Internet (We are not talking about social media)
Internet should be treated as a utility some 15 years ago.
Job searches, paying bills, medical portals and more. It's a requirement today even more so.

Fuck. We're the baddies.
All the so called christians that voted for this. They should be ashamed, but I'm not sure they can even feel shame.
It's really funny that as an atheist, I have more faith in the teachings of Jesus(charity, don't be a dick) than the so-called followers of Christ.
That's the beauty of Christianity.
It can be exploited to make you feel correct no matter your worldview.
Isn't Christianity the religion where it doesn't really matter how bad you are? In the end the love for Jesus fills up you entirely and before your final moments you become good.
I vaguely remember learning something like that.
All ya gotta do is believe in Jesus and ask for forgiveness right before you die and you get into heaven, no matter what you've done lol.

The depravity is beyond parody.
The saddest thing is that I'm not shocked in the slightest.
Good knowing we're the Axis this time around.
Shithole.
Makes sense. Being an ally is woke.
Well at least we know who the bad guys are.
The UN declaration of Human Rights already declared "freedom from want" a human right, which includes food, shelter, and clothing.
Food is already a human right, according to the UN.
freedom from want
That goes against the very foundations of capitalism!
The UN is lucky no one in the USA government can read, or they'd've already been liberated with extreme prejudice!
Didn't you read? Trump just signed an executive order that claims anticapitalist actions are terrorism.
I wish I was being sarcastic..

Big news everybody! The country that does nothing right, did the same thing again!
Like we did expect something different.
What a disgusting country I live in.
The concept of voting food as a human right is already weird to me but yeah, of course this would be the result.

The US vote counts as a veto right? That sucks ass.
The capitalism demands payment for food. The capitalism reminds you that it's easier to pull yourself up by the bootstraps if you weigh less.

How did I miss hearing f about this in 2021??
The fuck does "human right" even mean if a basic necessity for short-term survival isn't one?
