People defending extreme capitalism by way of whataboutism should realize just because there’s worse options out there that doesn’t mean we should settle with a lesser type of mediocrity instead of adopting an actually better option for society.

Especially today, when those who rose to power due to capitalism are the same ones pulling the ladder up while kicking down those trying to climb, and keeping other people from achieving success as well, which defeats the whole purpose of that system.

We can do better, and pressure is reaching a critical point, just like it did with the other bad and corrupted systems we had before.

Maybe. Things can also get a lot worse.

At least Americans do seem to be waking up to how bad the current US admin is based on the polling. I kind of wish they weren’t so stupid as to elect him (or allow him to be elected) in the first place. I resent being here in this timeline.

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.
