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.

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, the problem is that they coopted the word for their specific ideology in the same way conservatives are not in fact there to conserve anything and fascists don't inspire unity in society.
They? The comic says "Histories of Revolutions" not any specific time or place. Are you implying all Liberals are a part of an ancient shadow organization?
It's obvious what I mean so this sort of deflection is just weak.
It's a pointless exercise to argue about definitions. The author clearly meant something more like the type of liberal that Phil Ochs is singing about in Love me, I'm a Liberal. If you give it a listen, you'll get the gist...
I didn't listen to it, didn't even click your link, but I browsed Wikipedia about Ochs and then the song and I see he mocks liberals as being hypocrites for...
supporting the civil rights movement, two years after the Civil Rights Act was passed...
And calls them Nazis in the final verse...
Wow thanks for this civil discussion, go fuck yourself.
