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,' etc.

(Verse 1) When the kids hit the floor, but they ask us for more, That's Amer'ca. When the lives of the poor are ignored by the law, That's Amer'ca.
(Chorus) Watch them plead, watch them die, while the courts close an eye, That's Amer'ca. If the rich man falls, then the gallows will call, That's Amer'ca.
(Verse 2) You can slaughter a class, and they’ll let it all pass, That's Amer'ca. But for one CEO, they’ll demand death row, That's Amer'ca.
(Chorus) Where the guilty walk free, and the children just bleed, That's Amer'ca. If your crime’s against power, you’re gone in an hour, That's Amer'ca.
(Bridge) It’s a system of lies where the powerless die, And their screams hit the sky, unanswered, denied, That’s Amer’ca.
(Outro) So remember the game, it’s a broken refrain, That's Amer'ca. When a life’s worth is weighed by the dollars displayed, That's Amer'ca.
I hope you intended this to be to the tune of "that's amore" because that's what happened in my head
That's what came to my mind for some reason, reading the post.
