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.

The Indian government is already doing all the things you listed, mate. They have weakened RTI. found loopholes in the law, weakened the transparency of the Election Commission in various subtle ways, even fixed the Chandigarh mayoral election and won with lots of fake voters with suspiciously thin margins in some places, abused every agency there is from state police to CBI, ED and IT departments for arresting people. They even planted fake evidence to arrest a college professor. They've used everything from UAPA, the sedition law to POTA. A constitution only puts off what is inevitable. The writing is on the wall.
I think you should read my comment again. The Weimar Constitution too was well written but that didn't stop fascism. A piece of paper can only do so much. The opposition couldn't do shit about the Waqf act from passing, could it? It too violates fundamental rights by forbidding non-Muslims and recent converts from donating land. Constitution can't do shit. Only puts off what is inevitable.
