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 could say this the long way but I’ll say it the short way - as an American it’s completely obvious that it’s taken on this label because demographics other than old, rich, white men are now at the table. It’s always been identity politics. It’s the only kind of “politics” there have ever been.
