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.

George Carlin said it, and it's true. Rights don't exist. We've gotten to the level where things that used to seem protected are now violated, and pointing to the laws that say they are rights doesn't do anything. Once checks and balances disappeared, the ones in control could do whatever they want, especially when everyone else is still trying to use the rules that aren't being acknowledged or enforced to "fight" back.
Yup its almost word for word of his bit
I read it thinking,"Does this guy really think he's the only one who watched Carlin and is now trying to pass it off as his own idea?"
a lot of the countries that signed up to this

have made it almost impossible to take those rights away
pretty good huh? lets continue enforcing these rights, right?
almost impossible my ass.
Might makes right in this world.
