Flippanarchy
Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

There are probably already enough smart phones in existense for every person on the planet. And I really dont think snartphones are a necessary component of enabling anarchism, but its also not really anything bad to have them, IF we can source them and their parts without further hurting the earth via extraction. I think the current style of yearly new models and the goal of rapid improvement of capabilities is something that an anarchist society would question and probably end.
The chips themselves would suffice. Check out collapse OS.
That implies people would be content living under a system that didn't allow them to get a phone, when modern everyday work and life have become inextricably digitized to a significant extent.
Though I agree in that we don't need new models every year lol.
I think there probably reasonable and non violent ways to get everyone pretty decent smartphones, its just not something I would prioritize. An anarchist society spanning the whole globe might disagree with me of course and I wont object in that case, as long as we dont keep up current destructive practices.
