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.

Sorry to butt in, but I think we already got his point.
And I hope that you got his point that, in the last 20 years (maybe more), the claws of european christianity is better clipped than the claws of american christianity (which is growing sharper and sharper)
Again, I get that, a few centuries ago (crusades), christianity in europe had claws as sharp as a razor. but it got clipped, it grow again, got clipped, grow again (under fascism and nazism, which used the bible to persecute jews, homossexuals, black people and way more).
And nowadays, it got clipped again and that claw has less grip than the claw on USA.
The true questions are:
Will that claw in Europe grow sharp again following suit of american's claws or can they keep clipping that thing to not harm anyone?
And will american christianity's claws get clipped before it is too late or will they let it grow sharp as a razor and behead the heads of innocents?
These are the questions that need to be pondered.
