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. This includes instance shaming.

That’s a long list of companies I’m not going to fuck with anymore. They can produce whatever they want, doesn’t mean we have to consume it.

We are absolutely NOT obligated to consume ANY of that corporatist shit.

Best thing I did was get rid of my TV when I cut the cable back in 1999.

My current TV is a 50" budget "special needs" 4k Hisense I use for gaming. That's it.

It won't be hard to avoid. Most of it is going to be lame propaganda that you wouldn't want to watch anyway.

They're also going to go full-on into AI slop, which you likewise won't want to watch.

The slop is INSANE!

I've been "Do not recommend channel"-ing my youtube feed for the last few weeks., it went off the rails when my brother sent me a link to some "HFY" sci-fi short story.

I had no idea those were all AI content and once I watched part of one.. holy cats, that was it.

Say goodbye to my carefully curated home page.

FUUUUCCK!

I've been diligently curating mine for about 3-4 months, and it's gotten a lot better. Be sure to keep at it.

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Will do!

Good to know I can get things back on track.

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I already don't watch any of them, but now I can have a chip on my shoulder about it. Win/win.

Consuming it, but not paying them anything for it, is also an option, but I certainly respect avoiding it altogether out of principle.
