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, anti-communism, 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.

The hell is biscuits and gravy?
It's a breakfast dish from the southeastern US. Like many of our dishes, it's just a way to stretch calories using cheap ingredients. You cook a few pieces of sausage in a skillet then use the oil, some butter, and flour to make a light roux which you break up the sausage into. Serve gravy over southern style biscuits.
Butter/ savory scones, with thick sausage roux. Quite tasty, and cheap
Angry 'Murican downvoted you. I have no idea either.
I mean the name is pretty self explanatory, I have never had them but wasn't confused. Do you know what biskets are? Do you know what gravy is?
Yeah I know what a biscuit is. Is what Americans call cookies, that's not what's pictured apparently contains sausage which in the matrix space of "what is a cookie* is off on a distant planet in another galaxy.
What Americans call cookies, others call biscuits. American biscuits are flaky pastry. Biscuits and gravy is an excellent hearty breakfast for cheap.
So is this American biscuits or other biscuits?
This dish is made with American Biscuits, you would probably call them savory/ butter scones.
Biscuits are stuff like digestives, or jammy dodgers or bourbon biscuits. Gravy is bistro granules.
Scones are what they’re called.
US biscuits are soft, buttery, fluffy and delicious
What do you do with drippings? There’s a lot of juice and bits that accumulate when you cook a piece of meat that isn’t pure enough to use as frying fat, does it just get wasted?
They get added too.
Yeah, this isnt exactly health food. But it tasts wonderful
So gravy’s the same thing, just with a shortcut?
We know what gravy is and it's not whatever that in the picture is.
I mean that's just one form of gravy, you can use any gravy really. The pictured gravy is more popular in southern states, I think it has sausage in it and I am not sure what the base is, probably like a milk roux.
American gravy is wallpaper paste.
