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.

You could start by trying to resolve any conflict that would lead to that in the first place. But if you mean do it just because you feel like it then the community could require you to make reparations or something like that. If that still didn't work you could be kicked out of the community
Right, but that's a power structure. The community has the power to require reparations or kick you out.
Not necessarily as a community would have power split equally among all.
Until the first person realizes that if they can sway 51% of the community, they can oppress the other 49%. Technically everyone has an equal vote, but one person definitely wields more power. It's just mob rule, whoever is most persuasive is in charge.
Interestingly enough what you just described is a democracy, the socalled system that gives people power. Anarchist societies would be by consensus
Okay, but how do you make decisions if you can't reach unanimous consensus?
Well everyone wants something so you should always be able to make something that is best for everyone
People have conflicting wants. I want to live in the nice riverside plot, so do other people. I want the streets to be brick, other people want cobblestone. I want the town square to be a green space, other people want it to be a playground.
Sometimes different parts of the community want mutually exclusive things. All of political and economic theory ultimately comes down to how to negotiate disagreements about how to do things. You're not going to get unanimous consent on anything of substance in a group of more than a dozen people or so.
