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.

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.
Join the matrix room for some real-time discussion.
if you dont vote for gigahitler, a large language model that simulates a thousand Hitlers running cutting edge automated attack scripts from the NSA's super computers, then you chose The Fleshreaper, a supernaturally powered cloud of nanomachines carried on the breeze that spontaneously devours all organic matter for days on end before dispersing again, trackable only with advanced climate simulations, which have been illegal since 2027.
All of the presidents have recently been one of two types of people: lawyer or businessman. There used to be generals but Ike was the last one and it was a good way to end Generals as president.
We need to elect normal jobs into politics so things like education and medical costs are paid for instead of free money subsidies for the wealthiest corporations in history.
I don't have a tax problem - I have an income problem. Giving tax cuts shows they don't care or know what the problem is. Elect anyone who had a normal job. It's the best way to know they understand our problems.
If you understand how things work then you'd understand why that will never happen under the electoralists system.
Even if we elect a "regular" person into a position of hierarchical power their commanding interests stop being tied to that of the people and instead become enamored with emboldening their power in order to maintain what meager concessions they have managed to claw out from the system in their initial campaign, which will inevitably shift their interests to the interests of the economy (i.e. the interests of the owning-class as we exist in a capitalist economy) as the government's power is directly correlated to the strength of the economy.
We don't have a tax problem. We don't have an income problem. We have a fundamental systemic problem.
Yes this is the basic problem. Those in power will always serve themselves. It doesn't matter what they did or who they were before they were given power, the moment they get power:, they'll do whatever they can to keep it
