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.

Don't forget the magical machines we found to shitpost! I found mine in a creek, all natural PC and software to go with it.

Free internet too! OK, there were some guys to lay the cable line, and admin the network, and handle customer service, and pull permits so we're not living in anarchy, and... I can't go on.

It's a miracle! No one worked to provide any of this! And if they did, I'm sure they loved every moment of it.

Signed: Guy who broke his ass bringing y'all the first cable internet installs and updated software for Y2K so you can laugh about it being no big deal.

Given enough time nerds would have invented the internet just to argue with each other, with or without financial compensation
