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,' etc.

I'm still trying to figure out where the federal jurisdiction is in a simple murder, it's not a serial thing, a hate crime, or a crime conducted across state lines. Could the federal government really just be charging anyone with simple murder?
He crossed state lines to do it, so I guess that's the reason.
Unironically it is due to him using a phone across state lines in order to stalk the CEO first as well as the bus.
That is the flimsiest crap I've ever heard. There's been a problem with stalkers not getting prosecuted for decades and now suddenly they're so interested they get charges in a matter of days?
The double standard could not be more clear. The people are left to fend for themselves while the federal government uses every tiny scrap of power to defend the wealthy.
yeap, this whole thing seems like a show.
I think they’re trying to charge him for Terrorism.
The state is charging terrorism. The Feds are charging stalking and murder.
