Flippanarchy
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 am of three minds on this issue.
The purely rational side, knowing that "evil" doesn't really exist and there is no such thing as free will so hating people doesn't really make sense.
The bitterly angry side, despite knowing its irrational finding pleasurable catharsis in visceral hatred of a majority of people because they've demonstrated that in so far that its possible to deserve anything, they've demonstrated they deserve my hatred. And that relating to such people is incredibly difficult and that I cannot be honest with them in person about how I feel without becoming a pariah.
And finally, the despairingly lonely side seeking a life worth living, wanting to forgive them all for my own sanity's sake. Not wanting to accept that I'm surrounded by awful and petulantly stupid people and constantly trying to find a reason to believe that I am not... and failing. To embrace this part would be delusion or hypocrisy and yet I really want to.
