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.
Join the matrix room for some real-time discussion.

My understanding is the food production excess is "thanks" to unsustainable, damaging methods that rely heavily on synthetic fertilizer and have massive downsides like agricultural runoff and topsoil erosion (in addition to the wide-scale habitat loss required for those acres upon acres of farmland).
This. Truly sustainable practices require a considerably lower profit margin per acre, thereby forcing the parasitical middlemen to give farmers more without utterly hosing the consumer for all that they are worth.
And some overproduction is required to handle lean years. While you cannot keep fruit fresh for years, you can convert it into almost-analogous forms like flash-frozen in the field, within minutes of being picked, such that it can bridge the gap in lean years.
So there always will be some overproduction and some waste in the system, but not to the point where it needs to be intentionally made inedible so it cannot be given away, in order to create artificial scarcity to sustain market prices.
