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.

Seeing someone "vaguelly left" unironically defending the extrajudicial murder of Rosa fucking Luxembourg was not in my bingo card.

Note that even Germany itself celebrates Rosa Luxembourg and Karl Liebknecht

Maybe a way I could better explain the 'Disney Adult'... is that it is almost, kind of, maybe like a person with a fursona, who is /really/ deep into it.

The Disney Adult is ... not the real them, 90% of the time. They are a child in an adult body who is 'adulting', ie, just performing at the concept of ... being a mature and responsible person.

The "real" them is who they are when they take their annual trip to Disney Land (their own finances be damned, the pilgramage must be made), when they are rewatching the movies, when they are pretending to be a character from the movie and singing the song, when they are in costume as a Disney character... and acting like their idea of that character.

This is more advanced, more performative, disassociative, distinct than your typical 'well i got mine, fuck them poors' type of NIMBYism.

This is a person who does not have normal ... plates, cups, pillows, etc...they are all branded with Disney stuff.

Full immersion in the Disney flavor of the neoliberal phantasia/hyperreality, they've fully bought (in many ways literally) their magical fantasy personality from Disney, a lifestyle as a consumer product.

This is the kind of person who would have no problem rebelling against say, Christianity, but would likely either view r34 pr0n of their favorite Disney characters as damnable heresy, or have a closeted and shameful, a publically denied, fetishized enjoyment of it.

... I swear I am not being hyperbolic, as... odd as this may seem... I've known multiple people like this.

... Perhaps the saddest thing is that yes this arises from a highly individualistic society, but what this is is simply purchasing a more or less prepackaged identity from a company.... not actually formulating your own, which is why I say these people have very weak concepts of their own self identity.
