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.

I mean I see her point. Unless you have 61 seats in the Senate you're not going to get a conviction so why waste the political capital? Hell I don't even know if 61 would be enough. That's a legitimate argument.
The question though is if you can't do that what else can you do? If you don't have the capital to go after Trump for all of his obvious crimes of which there are many what makes you think you can get anything from investigations? Isn't punting immediately just the Declaration of weakness? I agree don't lead with impeachment. But I wouldn't take it off the table right away. And who knows if dominoes start falling maybe you won't need all 61. Maybe if you're investigations go well enough you'll gain momentum enough to actually do the impeachment.
I don't know. But whatever you do you have to remember that you actually have to get to work now and stop some shit. Take those conserved Democrats beat the living shit out of them and tell them to get in line.
They could have a majority, like they did under Biden, and they wouldn't do anything meaningful
