Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

I've seen parts of the world where people currently live in partial cardboard boxes with dirty mattresses as their only furniture. They still live as if the are not part of the modern world.

I'm sorry... I'm trying to understand what you're saying. Are you saying these people choose to live that way because they've chosen to opt out of capitalism? And that they could instantly and effortlessly have a fantastic life if only they joined the club?

Are you serious?
