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.

Why does the government get no consequences? Is that true? So even if the government starts killing us, we shouldn't do anything?

Why are you asking me these questions? It was just a factual statement, it’s not philosophical

Because these questions need to be answered, the fate of our specie kinda depends on it. I guess it's not really a big deal.

"Thereupon my visitor, very calmly and coolly, said to me: "Why are you so deeply opposed to the disappearance of the human race?" I am sure that as little as a century ago no one would have so lightly made a statement of this kind. It is the statement of a man who has striven in vain to attain an equilibrium within himself and has more or less lost hope of succeeding. It is the expression of a painful solitude and isolation from which so many people are suffering in these days. What is the cause? Is there a way out?"

Are you having a manic episode? You are preaching to the choir and trying to create some debate because I dare try to help you comprehend something someone else said that you seemed to be having issues with

No, but i'm wondering why you seem to think that the government has the entire monopoly on violence, and face no consequences for comitting violence. Because that's not the truth, we have the monopoly on violence, but for some reason we agree to these unfair playground rules where we let the bullies win every time instead of punching them in the nose.

I'll be less vague and more specific - Why do YOU agree to these playground rules, where the government gets to commit violence with zero consequence?

You are very oddly combative with some wall up so you have fun with that
