This sub is for:

1. The horrible things that the capitalist system forces people to do in order to survive within it.
2. Zesty memes, videos and GIFs that critique the social, moral and ideological decay of western capitalist culture.
3. The larger trend of corporate immorality and the increasing commodification and marketing of things that should not be commodified or marketed (such as social justice movements like the Starbucks 'race together' or Gay Pride).
4. Mocking the general hypocrisy and irrationality of Late Capitalism as it accelerates the process of digging its own grave.

Philosophy:

This subreddit has its roots in broad-based anti-capitalist thought, with an underlying Marxist tendency that is steeped in intersectionalist Critical Theory.
When it comes to proposed alternatives to Capitalism, it is the general consensus of this subreddit that the contradiction between Capital and Labour must be eliminated; the working class should own and control the means of production.

This man literally calls for the genocide of the entire black race. He is actively working towards making it happen. If you support this man, you do not have the moral high ground, you are a spineless and evil person. Liberals, think for a fucking second before whining about whatever you're on about.

If someone was hanging around trying to recruit people into a movement to break into my house and kill my family, I would do the exact same thing.
Who are we to tell someone they need to stand idle and not defend themselves because the lynch mob gathered outside their door hasn't hung them yet?

    If fascism could be defeated in debate, I assure you that it would never have happened, neither in Germany, nor in Italy, nor anywhere else. Those who recognised its threat at the time and tried to stop it were, I assume, also called “a mob”. ... - Franz Frison, Holocaust survivor

    Tolerance is not a moral that must be upheld in every circumstance - it is a peace pact.
    If one side incites war, they forfeit their right to peace.
    If one side incites intolerance, they forfeit their right to tolerance.

      Any coherent declaration of human rights will state that you don't have the right to oppress others. Promoting violence, and genocide, and the other things Nazis like Spencer believe in isn't a right.

        Youre spouting liberal nonsense. It was witty articles and conversation that stopped the Nazis.
        Just because you're willing to put up with a system of violence doesn't mean anyone else it.

          Can you even give me a reason why its wrong other than the bullshit "youre just as bad as them" because that point really works with facists and Nazis.
          [–]ContraPositive 1 point2 points3 points  (17 children)
          If human rights are truly valuable then defending them with violence is paradoxical and unjustifiable.
          If someone tells you that they're going to use violence to oppress human rights, what should you do? What about if someone is actively trying to oppress human rights through violence, what should you do? Is any system of human rights non-paradoxical or justifiable?
          You can't really pick and choose who deserves the benefit of human rights, you may believe this Spencer guy is scum but punching him violates his human rights
          What systems of human rights say that all people should be free from all violence at all times? Most of them say all people should be free of torture, or all people have a right to life, or something like that. But which ones specifically say all people should be free of all violence at all times? Which is what it seems like you're asserting. Apologies if that's not what you're claiming, but that's what your comment seems to imply to me.
          Many systems of human rights also assert that rights can be forfeited. For example, by being a Nazi, you might forfeit your right to life.

                Apologies, I'm really not trying to put words in your mouth, I'm trying to figure out what exactly you're saying. Because if you think one needs a categorical stance against all violence to believe in human rights, almost no one can coherently believe in human rights. Which would be fine for you to believe, but I'm not sure if that's what you're asserting. Is that what you're saying?
                but googling UN's human rights declaration, under article 3 (right there at the top of the list!) it says "security of person", which translates to you have the right of not being physically assaulted.
                That is a good place to start if you've never read about human rights before. But that article is intentionally vague, and comes into conflict with this article:
                Article 29.
                (1) Everyone has duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of his personality is possible. (2) In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society. (3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.
                It would be pretty straightforward to argue that Nazism directly conflicts with Sections 1, 2, and 3 of Article 29. As signatories like the US, Egypt, Cuba, Haiti, El Salvador, the UK, or Turkey (among others) would probably assert about the political ideologies they've violently suppressed since signing. How coherently a state can assert this is up to you. But many of the signatories of that Declaration have violently suppressed political ideologies. In my view, many of those suppressed political ideologies are far less dangerous than Nazism as well. But again, it's up to you to decide if you think liberation theology, or democracy, or capitalism, or a country's right of self-determination, or other ideologies that these countries have violently suppressed are more or less dangerous than Nazism.
                You can't justify punching someone for the sake of preserving the right of people to not be punched, that's just insert slur foolish .
                Nazis advocate racial superiority and genocide, not punching people. Punching people may be incidental in Nazism, but it isn't the core of Nazism. Arguing for the use of violence against violent aggressors seems pretty straightforward to me, especially if you only have to argue for violence at the level of one punch to the head of one Nazi.

                    Now your opinion makes sense to me. So do you believe in human rights or the use of violence?
                    If you have to cherry pick and decide when they apply and when they don't based on your personal convictions, then you don't really believe in human rights which are supposed to be UNIVERSAL (applies to all humans) and unbiased.
                    Cherry picking is when you decide things on an ad hoc basis or some biased decision making process. There are plenty of human rights systems where one can advocate violence and advocate human rights.
                    I'm sure some Neo-Nazis would argue that black people are exempt from human rights, wouldn't they ?
                    Do you not see how this is an obviously shitty argument though? Black people don't threaten the existence of anyone by existing. Nazis, if they are actually Nazis, threaten the existence of many people. Trying to blur this distinction leads to a shitty argument.
                    I was only pointing out to a 20yr kid old that his thought process is flawed and you can't sustain the justification of violating something for the sake of protecting it, hence the "fucking for virginity" parallel.
                    There is tons of scholarly and legal work that defends both human rights and violence using many different arguments, and most of the people who argue that are professionals rather than kids. Maybe the person you were talking to wasn't aware of this, maybe they were. But it is out there if you want to read it. If you think it's impossible to justify a belief in violence, and a belief in human rights, you might want to do some more reading on the subject.

                      On an different note, wouldn't the go to method of incapacitating a racist be blinding? I know it's way more serious to joke about blinding people for being Nazi's, but they seem to base most of their prejudice off of visual cues.

                          Unfortunately, there'll be more alt-righters, crypto-fascists, and Nazi's in the coming years so he'll have more opportunities.

                          I must say, the number of people who like this gif is astounding, in a good way.
                          I live in a country where the neofascists made political advances a few years back during election year, and the methods of opposition towards their meetings and whatnot went from "counterdemonstation" to "Stand and shout" to "shouting is bad form, scramble your keys isntead" to "scrambling keys is anti-democratic, instead we should stand in silence with our backs turned".
                          What we have here is a clearly organized fascist who is trying to gain sympathy for his cause, and instead he gets an elbow to the face. Doesn't get cleaner than that.
                          As for the cries of "violence is never the answer", well, we spent like five years countering the spread of nazism with bullets, bombs and hangings. Your grandparents actively hunted these people and shot them until they died, and then spent the subsequent years finding them, incarcerating them and then hanged them until death.
                          I'd prefer if it didn't go as far as to global war and genocide before they are halted, this time.

                          "No! While we may have disagreements, we do not condone violence! Peaceful protest only!" - Liberals.
                          Hey yeah, let's hold up signs, chant, then go home and think that'll fix anything.
                          NO, peaceful protest has never usurped power from oppressive institutions, ever. No, Ghandi was only negotiated with by the British because they were compelled to turn to him instead of the guerrillas fighting for independence to save face. So stop using that as an example.
                          It's oddly contradictory how anti-violent American protesting attitudes have become. A few Starbucks windows are smashed and people freak out like WW3 is here. This coming from a nation that eats up war porn media, UFC, and loves their guns. I don't get it. It's obvious one-half of the nation wants change, but I guess their motivation for it doesn't go beyond sign-holding and social media.
                          The French revolution was enormously bloody, but they still celebrate and glorify it to this day-- hell the most recognizable painting of the movement shows revolutionaries literally stepping over bodies in the streets. And then Americans like to poke fun at the French for being "p*ussies". Give me a fucking break.

                          I'm not excited about it, but it's so rare that any meaningful change comes about without it happening at the point of a gun, or with other types of physical violence.
                          The only change that happens without it, is change that doesn't really effect the status quo in any meaningful way.
                          You have a real shot at getting whatever your brand of change is, if the top 1% can figure out how to profit from it.

                          The Founding Fathers were okay with rebellion when they did it, but they did not want anyone rebelling against them. They made that very clear.
                          History has shown they are wrong. The United States is in dire need of a new revolution.

                          I agree with many of your points but real, violent, murder your friends and family revolution comes from much more desperate times. Sometimes desperate for commoners, but mostly for the rich and power hungry. I don't think we've reached that point to literally revolt yet. I disagree with the country's direction and will protest "wrong" and support "right" but that's about it.
                          Edit: I do agree with punching nazi what's his name. Didn't know about the asshole before but I'm aware now. Fuck that guy and anybody else that thinks like him.
