I agree with except for that the main side-effect of late stage capitalism is inequality. Although it is one of them, the reality of it is probably not what she means by the word.

Why do people think being stoic means to let people walk all over you or to just sit idly by while bad shit happens happens around you? The way I understood it to be stoic is to not get emotional over things that CAN’T be helped or fixed. Like if a hurricane is coming to your home it’s stoic to not freak out and become irrational but that doesn’t mean you don’t board up your house and do your best to make your situation better.

That's absolutely correct, though. Everyone will eventually get consumed by consumerism and will become a marketed thing. It's impossible to avoid until we dismantle capitalism and hang all capitalists and the cuckolds that support their oppression and exploitation.

Capitalism is simply trading for profit between private individuals rather than a state being in control of it. So ever since humans have traded privately, capitalism has existed to some degree.
