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

Rules

  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

But what I think they’re trying to describe is a dual-power relationship between the state and labor

They didn't mention labor, they are talking about power as in the power the government or a president has

But the promise of an immaculate statutory framework that denies any individual or coalition power is a false one.

I don't picture anarchism as a system where a statutory framework is put in place

Power is a consequence of social relationships and control of physical capital by individuals.

I don't like much this generalization, you are describing the power over control of physical capital, in our scenario the power is granted through law and established through police

There is no established structure that can prevent a cartel of insiders from seizing control of critical infrastructure.

Something we can be sure neither established or non-established structure can't change is the truth, nobody can change the fact that 1+1=2, they can only lie about it for some time

Civil Rights can only ever be aspirational in a world where a local monopoly on violence undoes in days what a community spent generations building.

It took humans millions or years to learn how to hold a stick, perhaps it just take more time and effort
