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.

Doesn't happen nearly as often as it needs to, but.. Americans do protest like this. After 2020 everybody freaked out and voted to quintuple all the police budgets because Americans did this, actually. The problem is there's no solidarity when it happens, everyone trips over themselves to condemn the evil violence of harming the buildings and THEN looks at other countries like "why don't WE do this???"
Yeppp American protestors burned down police stations in 2020
Tbf it will be similar in France. These protests and the chaos that comes with it pretty much secure a victory for Le Pen in the coming elections. Damned if you do, damned if you don't (protest).
Yeeep
