    Oh wow that’s a whole new kind of awful I didn’t know about. Blocking their dash cam with their hood?

      Well I know I’m officially on the Reddit alternative when I see a repost from 6 years ago. Body worn cameras have become pretty much standard and dash cameras are of much less benefit once the vehicle is stopped. Yes, putting the hood up to block the camera is obviously suspicious but this is a very old post. It’s time to move on to tactics. Used to skew the angle of the bodyboard camera.

        Ah I see, so it’s not a new tactic, it’s a very old one.

      And if they try to stop you, let them arrest you but disable your device before they can access it. Then find the local ACLU and return the trouble to the cops

        They just smash phones the majority of the time. Unless you’ll be able to automatically update your photo/video to the cloud.

    It’s sad to see how badly the police need more funding, their vehicles braking down en masse like that!

          At whose expense?

          Also, trust in the police is at an all-time low, especially among young liberal-leaning Americans.

            You’re not the only one to miss my attempt at humor. I suspect I have used a format from Reddit that might be obscure in other parts of the online world. I make a statement and pretend like it’s a quote from a group or individual I actually disagree with. I am not advocating for police funding, I suggested that the image might elicit such a response from naive liberals.

                LSC on Reddit was quite active, so it might have name recognition. Thanks for the heads up!

        Umm, aktually, your phone is digital, my good sir, which means that technically, there is no “film” inside with which to film, only my favorite directors like Judd Apatow use real film 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

A One-Stop-Shop for Evidence of our Social, Moral and Ideological Rot.

(It is also the official version of r/LateStageCapitalism/ on the Fediverse)

This community is for:

News, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge the narratives which act as legitimations for the status quo of modern class society. Posts need not be about capitalism specifically, whether late-stage or otherwise; we simply aim to cater to a socialist audience.

We do allow links to threads and comments on Lemmy/Reddit, as long as they are relevant to the content guidelines and follow the rules. Use NP links, or your post will be deleted.


Philosophy:

This community has its roots in broad-based anti-capitalist thought, with an emphasis on Marxist concepts and analysis and a commitment to antiracism and inclusive feminism.

When it comes to proposed alternatives to Capitalism, it is the general consensus of this community that class-divisions and alienated labour must be abolished; production must be collectively organized by the laborers themselves for the direct benefit of all. We call this socialism.

Find out more here: The Principles of Communism


Rules:

1. Lemmygrad-wide rules apply. Behavior such as brigading and harassment won’t be permitted. Neither will posts that can be interpreted as explicit threats of/calls for violence.

2. Any post that makes a claim should have a RELIABLE source or explanation in the comments by OP. All claims, news articles, tweets and so forth that are an example of LSC should be substantiated with a reliable, factual and verifiable source. Any posts that egregiously break this rule will have their poster temporarily banned. If the Automoderator deletes the comment with sources that’s fine, the moderators can still see and restore it.

3. No trolling. “I was just trolling” won’t be accepted as a defense for breaking rules, and we will ban for intentionally disruptive behavior or attacks on our community, users, or philosophy.

4. No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism. This community is intended for a socialist audience, and while good faith questions are allowed, pushing your own counter-narrative here is not. We do not allow support here for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it. We are not a liberal or (U.S.-/Social-) Democrat community; we are a socialist community.

5. No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or zionism. This includes not just ideologies to the right of liberalism but also right-wing fixations such as national/ethnic/cultural chauvinism and military/police worship regardless of the underlying ideology. We take no side in the Russia/Ukraine conflict.

6. No “lesser evil” rhetoric. Lesser-evil rhetoric in relation to elections or current policies is prohibited. Dismissing voting third party because they are “useless” or because you are “throwing your vote away” also violates this rule. It also encompasses saying Trump is “worse” for Gaza, as that place is already completely destroyed. Trump is merely carrying out what the American ruling class started under Biden. Resorts being built and mass relocation were already happening under Biden and Kamala would’ve continued it.

7. No bigotry. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or classism. The respect for readers who are subject to these forms of bigotry takes priority in this community over your right to speak freely.

8. Be nice to each other. Be respectful towards other socialists you disagree with, but also non-socialists who follow the rules and participate in good faith. Feel free to dunk on trolls, bigots and bootlickers to your heart’s content.

9. Bans are at moderator discretion. We reserve the right to eject users (as well as remove, lock, or otherwise moderate any content on the community) for reasons not listed if we consider it necessary to do so.

10. Don’t bother sending us personal promotion requests. We are not an advertising platform for your blog or YouTube channel.

11. Do not post content from Dan Price, any other CEO/business owner or ANY liberal politician/official.

This is regarding positive posts or posts agreeing with their statement. Negative posts are permitted but better suited to communities like /c/ShitReactionariesSay

Please note that Robert Reich or Bernie Sanders as liberals also fall under this rule.

12. Do not post NSFL content and flair NSFW posts accordingly. NSFL posts will be removed. Flair NSFW posts with the appropriate content warning flair, otherwise you will be banned temporarily.

13. This is not a debate community. Constructive questions and discussion are welcome, but our basic philosophy is non-negotiable and we aren’t interested in repeatedly having to explain or justify it. We also won’t debate about so-called “socialist” countries. There are plenty of political debate communities, so take your ‘gotchas’ there.

14. No AI generated content. The community does not allow for AI generated content, even if it’s pro-socialist/communist.
