This is not an education forum. This is a forum specifically for leftists. If you are leftist, you already have a position that is understandable in a leftist space. The problem is liberals that are not leftist coming into leftist spaces trying to co-opt them and neuter them to get us to support their right-wing candidates. All throughout the history of socialism and communism, dating back a few hundred years, the only ones that were allowed to participate in leftist spaces were ones that already understood the principles.

To join the Black Panther Party in the 60s, you had to be black and you had to be a communist that understood the principles of communism and have studied and researched it to a specific level. If you did not, you simply were not allowed in, You were allowed no input, you were allowed no influence, you just simply were not allowed in. So to enter leftist spaces you need to do the work to understand our position before you enter our space. Or be willing to learn by asking questions, not throwing demands at us.

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.
