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, anti-communism, 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. This includes instance shaming.

Why does a voting demographic not appeal to centrists??? Do you know what a demographic is??
Yep, and leftists are the smallest with the least amount of voting power.
If they want to get leftist legislation passed without compromise they have to win over voters until they have enough numbers. Until they do that they have two options:
Attacking the democrats that give leftist a platform is a bad look and one of the many reason leftists are such a small unpopular demographic.
So how does a demographic get together to make decisions in order to win over voters? They're presented with two options, and have to choose, what should the deliberation process and decision making look like for a demographic? Is it different for the age 18-25, black, academic, leftist demographic?
I’m sorry I can’t understand it for you…
just admit you used demographic wrong my guy it's not that bad. I was actually trying to build to a larger point about you confusing base and superstructure but that probably won't make much sense to you because I'm gonna guess you haven't read much about political theory but whatever you got your cute clapback
I can tell you think I used the word wrong and that is proof you don’t understand what is being said.
