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.
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.

You people will never not be funny. Great to whom? People in Iraq? Afghanistan? Syria?
Just say you fuckwits only care about yourselves and try some introspection next time to think how it got to a point you have to choose between the lesser "evil".
You wanted less evil for yourselves, not anyone else.
Starting off with "you people" always sets the bar for a good discussion. Maybe part of my sarcasm was referring to those situations as well as domestic problems, or how either or both sides could have done a lot better for decades. I wonder if you think all this is recent? I've been seeing this shit for decades, trying to change it... I guess it's my fault that it hasn't. This sure sounds like projection.
It depends who you mean by "you people".
If you mean "Liberals (in the American style)" you're probably right.
If you mean "Americans", you're wrong, not because many or most Americans think like that, but because many do not at all think like that.
PS: And I use "American-style" because I don't just mean those in America, rather any who believe in a certain kind of self-proclaimed "Liberal" politics which is the same as "Liberals" in America (basically Neoliberalism, with or without the Identity Politics decorative elements). People who believe in that kind of politics are definitelly not just in America.
