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.

Of the choices the Democrats are most likely to stop the concentration camps so of my three options (vote Dem, vote Repub, do nothing and/or vote third party) I'll do the one that is most likely to effect the change I want
Let's look at a historical analogue. In the past Democrats were anti-gay marriage. I think Clinton only came around on it in like 2012 and Obama in like 2008 or something like that, who knows. But recently in the grand scheme of things. Can you imagine in like 2006 being like "well the Democrats and Republicans both don't support the gay community so I guess I'll just not vote"? But the Dems were the most likely to eventually come around, and enough people pushed them in that direction that they did the right thing. That's how politics works
This is backwards. The reason they came around to gay people were because of violent riots.
You can riot and also vote, they're not mutually exclusive acts
Stfu you don't actually want people to riot you're being dishonest.
