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. 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.

Taking it literally? Pretty stupid interpretation.
A much more likely meaning is "means much less than it could" because elements of capitalism are greatly diminishing the benefit of awareness by keeping people from doing anything about it once they become aware.
To put it another way: it doesn't help as much to remind people to take care of their teeth if you also make sure that a toothbrush costs $10,000
Yeah, you are totally right. I totally misunderstood the comment that I was replying to.
Learn to use language normally?
When someone says "I blew them all away", you think someone is talking about exploding bodies instead of impressing people?
Yeah, you are right. I misunderstood the comment I was replying to.
