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.

I have pretty good insurance. I make pretty good money. But for the fucking life of me I can’t find a doctor that takes my insurance and is accepting new patients.
So this rash on my hand is getting Vaseline until it starts turning black and then I’m taking a cleaver to it.
Even if you did, 90% chance they'd charge you a few hundred bucks just to tell you to put Vaseline on it. 10% chance it turns black and they get to charge you big money to save you the trouble of cleavering it.
... Fuck insurance.
I’m pretty sure it’s a flare of up dishydeotic eczema. I had one on the same fingers about 15 years ago but way worse.
I know what they’d do is prescribe me some special ointment and it would go away in a week or so and cost less than $50 between the copay and the script.
But the goddamn fucking hoops they make you jump through just to get a doctor to say “yep, that’s what you think, I’ll send a script” is infuriating.
Which lets me know they’re doing it on purpose to cut costs by getting people to avoid getting care even if they can.
If you know the name of that ointment then I'm sure you can find it on a website somewhere.
I'm lucky, I don't have to pay for doctors or prescriptions. But if I did then I'd deffo buy ointment off the net rather than wait and wait and wait.
If it’s available by prescription I don’t think it’s available online. But I might be able to find something similar at Tractor Supply. Their apple-flavored antibiotics work and taste great.
If you are not bothered about the legality then most things are found online if you go to the correct places...
