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.

I agree that guns should eventually been done away with. My concern is that dispensing ourselves of them now would leave any revolutionary movement vulnerable to slaughter. I don't trust our bourgeois to not massacre us should we try to do away with them. Peaceful revolutions aren't impossible but I don't think they are feasible if the domestic bourgeois feel they can react with immense violence at no risk to themselves.
I feel like guns are probably a greater danger to the proletariat than the government - they have far more effective means than guns for fighting the people.
