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.

Marxism-Leninism Study Guide: Advanced Course
I had a friend who would say he needed the whole 17-round semiauto 9mm because "what if multiple people wearing body armor break into my house?" and my answer was "Dude, if three guys wearing body armor break into your house, that's either a SWAT team or a cartel hit squad, and either way you're dead."
If I ever need to pull the trigger, then something has gone very wrong. If I ever need to pull the trigger six times, something has gone horribly, apocalyptically wrong. If I ever encounter a problem that six rounds of 357 cannot solve, then I'm definitely dead anyway.
Also, I wanted a gun that would outlive both me and human civilization as we know it.
