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.

The average life of an Empire is about 250 years. It's just about time.

Well, hopefully you can avoid Poilievre. Otherwise, you might be joining us on the crazy train.

If Carney wins leadership of the Liberals, then wins the election, we should ok.

Still a big hill to climb tho.

a big if. as it stands, the Liberal party has the trudeau ick to it, and I would be floored if they did any better than 3rd place.

It can't end soon enough for me. It needs to die.

Classic trolly problem. 350 million of us vs 8 billion of everyone else.

Easy math.

if it wasn't for the fact that Europe F'ed around for 20 years and disarmed, leaving itself vulnerable right around the same time Russia decided to go on a Russkiy Mir-redraw the world maps and kill everyone who resists adventure. I would have been indifferent to it. the never ending lunacy of the US has left me with the belief that it should be broken up into different states. Its clear they hate themselves and each other.

Alas, World War II was for nothing, Fascism is back with a vengeance, it started in 2022 with Russia, and it's entering a new stage in America.

I can't understand why there isn't a large group of people with marshmallows hanging out in DC. It's just. What does it take?

if you think the rich fuckheads are going to stop at America you're fooling yourself.

Oh I have no illusions they ever intend to stop. They'll take and take until the world is burning into ash.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

like the parasites they truly are.

Anything for profit.

Normally hate political memes in this kind of tone and format. The bland "Occupy Democrats" type ones, you know. Can't really find fault in this one though.
