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. 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.

Israel would be forced to integrate into the region if they simply had a limited supply of weaponry. Because they have the full and clearly unconditional backing of the US, they don't have to do normal diplomacy (see all the ceasefire deals they've torpedoed); they know they can just shoot missiles and kill indiscriminately until the other side capitulates, and so does everyone else, because they're proving it every day now.

It would be messy, but they'd find a way to do it because they would finally have skin in the game. Or they'd lose one of the wars they're starting and that would be too bad in the "fuck around and find out" sense.
