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, 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.

you accepting refugees yet?

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

It’s not like there would be any housing available for us if they did

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Accepting? They gave Yaroslav Hunka a standing ovation in parliament.

Canada loves refugees of the correct political persuasion.

civilized

your colonialism is showing.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They’re asking if a civilized country would deny healthcare. They’re not calling themselves civilized other than they have healthcare and the US does not.

[–] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

it's deeply embedded colonialism, and you are making excuses for it. they could have said compassionate or made some appeal to practicality. "civilized" is practically a synonym for white, which is to say a way to distinguish the colonizers from the savages.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You just sound triggered and looking to be mad about something.

Both countries are products of colonialism and despite knowing the history of both and all of the horrors, Canada is looking a hell of a lot more civilized in 2025 than America. Does Canada have legalized slavery as a form of punishment?

It's not the laopards. Its they themselves who cut off their noses to spite their own faces. Bcos Gaza. Lofl.

Guess you’re fine with genocide so long as your team gets to win the capitalist Olympics

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I guess you're fine with genocide as long as it's the goal of the side you support. I call that hypocrisy.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 1 day ago (12 children)

Uh what? No, I’m not ok with genocide which is why I refused to vote for the democrats who are fully responsible for it.

They chose to make Gaza worse but also make the county worse because the alternative wasn't as good as they would have preferred

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Gaza worse? Biden already set the bar in hell. Supposedly a cease fire is in the works, and if so and Israel abides by it (the latter unlikely) liberals can go fuck themselves for eternity for constantly refusing to listen to the left. It’s liberals fault they’d rather lose to fascists than embrace any leftist positions. I for one will never ever vote democrat again country be damned.

[–] K1nsey6@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That ceasefire is all smoke and mirrors. If tiktok does end up getting banned, the moment they go dark is when that ceasefire will come to an end.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tik tok is not the only media stop being ridiculous. As for the ceasefire we’ll see it’s already better than biden.

[–] K1nsey6@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tiktok was the only media exposing it for what it was. All other forms of media including the government is in genocide denial while supporting zionists and their slaughter of Palestinians

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

I’m not on tik tok and I’m fully aware. I’ve been aware for a long time even before the most recent situation. Gen z and the oldest alphas needs media literacy if they think tik tok is the only source of information out there.

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well now they'll definitely listen to you.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 1 day ago

The democrats represent their donors, not the working class. They never listened in the first place why start now?
