Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Now, I know some of you are ready to come here and post some horrible fascist subreddits; but that's just too easy. Fascists are everywhere and they converge on all platforms at this point.

In terms of neolibs or radlibs, I genuinely think FluentInFinance meets that criteria as a point between the both. The well-off neolibs with raging hatred for the poor are constantly on there dismantling the "common points of the prole clamoring on twitter" with "facts and economic logic" that's just boils down and condenses into blaming people for their finances, recommending/shilling outright financial services that shouldn't be captured by corporations and generally completely ignoring the material conditions of everything around us.

More often than not they invade other socialist subreddits and literally comment on posts about people struggling on "How to cut 5 dollars out each month and save X so you can invest into X and have at least part of a bed-rock after years of effort and time you could have spent on food!" and ignoring completely that well over 40% of Americans live paycheck-paycheck.

This is made double worse by the sheer amount of lolbertarians and radlibs who worship Hayek and Mises (example above) come down and justify/relinquish in the blood of every act of austerity and death their system and candidates of hand out. It's like a fucking liberal vanguard.

I don't know what the screenshot is trying to say. I don't know anything about NAFTA and USMCA.

One of the worst parts about NAFTA was it's the U.S's way of allowing it's corporations/goods to cross Mexican and Canadian borders with no limitations/less taxes as well. The screenshot mentions how it offered a layer of protection to these corporations as well. The comment section was absolutely brimming with frothing libertarians and chuds defending the U.S trade hegemony that they have.

USMCA I'm not too familiar with; but I do know it reworked rates with steel, aluminum to a more favorable advantage with the U.S towards Canada. Basically bourgeoise treaties of how they handle the exploitation.
