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.

Lol I'm not trying to harass anyone. Just push back on the notion that all the world's problems can be laid at the feet of the rich. And if we're gonna collectively pull ourselves out of this ecological disaster we've gotta change. Be willing to eat less meat travel less, consume less overall. And plant a damn garden while you're at it!
You're right in that I don't know anything about you. Except that you're willing to completely miss the point of what's been said and decide to take offence.
Why do you care to protect them in the first place? Are you one of them? Lurking on the peasant's media space, defending the wealthy from their own selfish behavior? Why is the lesson that must be given that the wealthy aren't as evil as their behavior suggests? Why is that your priority at all?
You give offense with every guilt layden demand that the poor and working class further disempower ourselves to satisfy you. Go nag the wealthy who caused this mess, go guilt them into stopping their companies from despoiling the air, the land, the water. Go demand they end the fossil fuel industry that they own and profit from that we are all forced to participate in.
We will never get out of this without the wealthy changing. So long as they refuse, we are lost. Eat less of the meat we can already barely afford with food prices where they are? Travel less!? Who can afford to travel anywhere? Plant a garden? Where the hell are we supposed to do that? Land is too expensive to even have any of it because the wealthy keep buying it all FFS.
You're completely out of touch and yet you come here to lecture us about our responsibilities? You're a class traitor and wealth apologist. If the wealthy refuse to sacrifice to fix the problems they caused then I'd rather watch the world burn.
Lol what part of fuck the oligarchy do you interpret as me "protecting the rich" fuck em. Bring out the guittiones I say. Fuck dude. I'm done
The part where you try to guilt working people into further disempowering themselves through yet more sacrifices. The part where you seem to think the most important lesson here is that rich people aren't at fault and shouldn't be forced to fix it themselves.
