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.

Even though we have to keep in mind Title 42 restrictions due to Covid Biden deported more people than Trump.

Why? Why do we "have to keep in mind" a relatively unrelated fact about the last president? Must we always find some "what about" to bring up when the tangerine toddler smears feces on the walls?

Because there is continuity

Because Trump's whole claim falls apart if Biden deported more people than him. The "keep in mind" part is just because we have to remember that it also wasn't for lack of trying and they might try to use that as a defense

Trump and his base would be wildly ignorant about how the state operates even without the cruelty, Biden expelled as many people as he could under the rules
