Late Stage Capitalism

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

People notice even small stuff. I notice it too on some products. Not to mention the workers would know about it, corporate would know about it etc.

I mean if you have something to support this theory then I'm really interested to see it but at this point this is just a conspiracy theory.

My support for the theory is capitalism. Look around. There's no way that these tags are not being planned to be used that way. We are literally in the comment section of a post where an industry analyst, someone who ostensibly knows what they're talking about, says they're going to do exactly that. Get real.

If it isn't happening already, it will be happening soon.

We're talking about if it is happening where I live. You seem certain it is. I'd like to see something better than "get real" to support that, if you don't mind.
