I'm a waitress. As long as you're not making a mess, and you're keeping company with people who are patronizing the establishment, you're fine. You said you're filling your own water bottle? Sounds like you're making no additional work for the service staff, so don't worry about it.
Set up monthly donations to the ACLU and Planned Parenthood, volunteer as a PP escort, open up my (Illinois) home to women and families who need to travel for reproductive healthcare.
This isn't off the top of my head, my spouse and I discussed it years ago, before the previous election.
Why the hell'd they make it look so much like a Switch?
No, I've seen a diverse range of views, including several explicitly postliberal ones.
Unless you're using "liberal" as lazy shorthand for the US left-wing, in which case still no, because it's not an echo chamber, but yes, views that are left-of-(American)-center are predominant.

I was with you until "extremist left".
You have fewer male ancestors than female ones.
Capitalism is an economic system where capital is considered a valid input to the production process, worthy of renumeration. Contrast with some other systems where labor is the only valid input.
Capital is material wealth used productively.
Capitalism empowers ownership of produced good by laborers by funding new ventures where laborers can be more self-directed than if they were forced to labor under the direction of others. Capitalism erodes control from laborers by introducing a non-labor stake in the venture. Both are true.
An artisan who sells what they produce is free to be a capitalist or not, the two are unrelated.
Such a person cannot exist in a society without private property, as "selling" is not a valid concept in such a society. Artisans in general would still exist, though, and probably more abundantly.
An artisan who has more work orders than she can fill alone can expand without the methods you describe. She can form a partnership with another artisan, and teach or otherwise share her methods of production, tools, and branding. This could be an equal partnership or something more like taking an apprentice.
The distinction between worker coöps and other businesses is important, but it's also important to recognize that coöps are a subset of businesses, not an opposing type of entity. Coöps have just as much ability to behave in a predatory manner towards consumers, and almost as much potential to seek self-perpetuation and growth at the expense of their environment. That they will be less predatory towards laborers is nice, but it's not enough to make them "safe".
You should still be able to apply for refugee, asylum, permanent residency, or citizenship in other places. Whether or not that's realustica and feasible is another issue, but legally, you're fine: Your citizenship status at home won't affect your ability to seek a new home.
How did I get through it? I just felt like shit for a while. That's it. The only way out is through.
Directly at my groin, please. It's the best way to show appreciation for my service.
I know at least two times when I was definitely hallucinating in my adult life, which makes me uncertain how many other times I was hallucinating that I don't know about.
