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.

No but you see, the people who do not have the capacity to decide for themselves, somehow have the capacity to select one person among them who has the monopoly of violence to decide for all of them. Clearly this is completely logical.
are the alt left liberals we used to call "tankies" until they claimed that was something only right wingers called all leftists behaving poorly again?
Hah, well yes, but not relevant to this meme. My comment applies equally to liberal and state capitalist politics tbh :D
Oh for sure. Any coagulation of power into a single point is bad. Your comment just read to me like you've been having to debunk the value of vanguard party politics and an ML state dictator a lot lately.
But just as bad is a capitalist who believes in no power but the power of a banknote (banks can only exist through theft, and banknotes exist as proxied violence) or a fascist who explicitly aligns their countries industrial and military interests without concern for the banking implications. Didn't mean to imply your comment only applied to one thing
