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,' etc.

The main component you have to deal with is exhaustion. Whether mental or physical, nobody is able to sustain a continuous fighting mindset. The longer the fight, the higher the odds people will burn out and drop all resistance.
Second component is outing infiltrators looking to do the above and destroy your movement from the inside out.
Third component is avoiding radicalization due to the above as it will turn your movement from a reasonable position to a fringe extreme.
Fourth component is to avoid becoming a cult. Ideas are good, but don't fanaticise over them. Not everyone thinks the same and there's always a conflict of ideas.
Fifth component is understanding that people die and their experience and knowledge isn't inherited in full by the next generation, so avoid gathering around a central figure you can't do without.
Sixth component is to find a way of communicating without communicating out loud. Rather than super secret spy stuff, it means having a set of guidelines for people to follow if things don't go according to plan rather than have them panicking.
Seventh component is having conviction. Don't bother doing something like this if you don't believe in it. Doubt will creep in even when you're wholeheartedly dedicated to something, let alone when you're just paying lip service.
Feel free to change or add as desired.
Good stuff.
