Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Doesn’t matter as long as all people go out and vote this trash bag shit eater into an early grave.

Hmmmm.
No matter what, the US Federal government is going to be ruled by a single party, the only question is: will it be the liberal party or the Trump cultists.
Edit: every time I comment this I get downvoted, which I think is odd because it's irrefutable. The US was a two party system, but one of those two parties has gone completely bat shit insane, leaving only one viable political party in the US. If the bat shit party doesn't take power, that leaves only one other option. The math is pretty simple here, so I don't get how this is controversial. Even if you think a new second party will emerge, that's going to take some time, and in the meantime there will be one political party in control.
Sadly, the dems are more like the centrist party, which is why the repubs keep pulling the US further to the right. Would be great if the republicans self-destructed from within like they seem to trying to do, opening a void for actual libs to go against the dems. A person can dream, anyway!
