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, 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.

Well... Yes.
They're literally putting curfews in major cities, talking about social media black holes, and talking about banning the most popular leftist party from the next elections. Police are literally killing and maiming kids in the street as we speak.
Thanks for the terminally American pastime of thinking you're unique.
Edit: to the terminally dumb Americans downvoting, I suggest you look at what's happening in France. Not what your liberal media is talking about, but what is really happening.
and sources for the curfews?

You can find many more news sources if you don't like this one, just search the magic words "France curfew"
Edit: in case you need more news fed to you: here is the one where they talk about banning LFI by blaming them for the riots:
