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.

So if there's this 'real' shadow president that was using the autopen and running things from behind the scenes, why did this shadow president let Trump win in the first place if they're so nefarious and powerful? And where are they now?

The problem is this is how they build that cult of personality. "See! Trump is so great even the shadow council behind Biden couldn't keep him from winning." Fascism 101: Your enemy is simultaneously infinitely powerful and horrendously weak, sometimes in the same sentence.

Trump also uses an autopen.
