Late Stage Capitalism
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.

Yeah, absolutely, they want us poor, so they set it up that way. Also, what three, cause I only see one necessary one? (Not counting the ones that say "Overpriced/unnecessary" as eliminating the good/service altogether.) Its video games BTW, and they will not, I repeat, not make you poor. Generally they are a very good allocation of entertainment money in both hours and fun per dollar.
two for sure: video games and forgetting to look for discounts.
the third one--which is more of i don't know precisely what it says rather than it getting a hard pass--is the "buying ... (clot)hes" which is mostly hidden behind the right edge of the big fat "capitalism" sign.
Yeah, I get that. Its probably buying too many clothes. But, like the mindset of this thing is pretty bad, these things are unnecessary, but only bc a bunch have unnecessary in the name.
