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.

You seem confused about how my question relates to the meme? It's a litmus test for whether or not a person is the sort of Tankie who supports China sending Uyghurs to work camps until they die, who supports Russia's invasion of Ukraine, who supports Pig Butchering Scams and Psyops which get people like Trump elected. If you wonder if a person actually opposes capitalism or actually just opposes western democracies, you can ask them their opinion on NATO and they will clear up any confusion.

And what does that have to do with your logic saying trump is good?

Also a weird purity test for someone that wants a big tent party.

lmfao, I even already clarified Trump is sidingnot with me but WITH YOU on this issue.

Not a purity test, a polarity test to separate us from enemies of mankind and themselves. Tankies are in the GOP base.

No you ignored it and deflected by saying trump wants to leave NATO which is unrelated to the logic of him being good because anti China.

Not a purity test, a polarity test to separate us from enemies of mankind and themselves. Tankies are in the GOP base.

Who do you think are the enemies?
