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.

That's why I advocate for capitalism with significant socialist policies, strong safeguards, and extreme restrictions. Tax the rich and give everyone UBI. Make the minimum wage a multiple of the inflation factor (and fix "inflation" to actually measure how the cost of everything has increased over time).

Knowing lemmy, most people will stop reading six words into this comment.

I would prefer a better system from the ground up. I'm willing to compromise for making the existing system not suck (which would actually take more work but I think will be easier to sell to the general populace).

Of course, this is the overly idealistic side of me, the part that still believes that playing by the rules is the correct thing to do. I'm more likely to believe the anarchists these days. It's amazing how far left I've moved In the past handful of years, I used to think of myself as liberal (actual liberal not what most people who call themselves liberal are).

At this point I'm willing to try just about anything else, and that includes burning it all down and starting over.
