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.

Getting people to start acting and organizing is a necessary first step towards revolution.
I agree with that. I’ve been in one and it was not wasted energy because people were networking and exchanging information about local government crimes.
My problem is I cannot imagine these evolving. It’s a dead end.
Perhaps this is only my imagination not being big enough when I think of what I have seen and heard.
This is it. The protest itself isn't going to do much. What the protest does is concentrate people together so that the people who want to do something and the people organizing things to do can meet each other.
The problem is that there is organizing being conducted by the oligarchy via no kings. What they're missing out on is the mobilizing part, that's the part that gets things done. And after people have done their little frog dances and chanted and held signs for 2 hours, they're ready to go back to brunch and forget about the whole thing.
Any top down political movement in the United States must, by definition, fail in its primary goals and will be hijacked by the wealthy.
Any internet coordinating is by definition top down.
Editing: Communication on the internet by local groups is different
This one started out being organized by the oligarchy to prevent an actual uprising
