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.

If you ride the subway in Washington DC there are posters advertising anti-aircraft systems and other military contract products right next to the ads for car insurance and chewing gum and it's so fucking weird.
Huh... perhaps I should buy myself a few anti-aircraft batteries, you never know what home invaders can come up with ig
Bro if you're in the market, you've gotta check out Conksat's offerings they've got some absolutely unmatched products like Missiles As A Service, next generation bombers based on the bleeding edge Cessna platform, and even a ground based satellite power system with integrated return reel!
Maybe like 10 years ago, someone did a regression analysis to see which stations were most expensive to advertise in, when corrected for actual ridership starting or ending their train rides swiping in and out at those stations. For the most part, most stations' advertising prices pretty closely matched the number of riders, with the clear outlier of the Pentagon station.
I can't find that article anymore because Google search turned into dog shit, but this more recent article basically covers the contours.
Wait fr? Thats a normal thing in the USA?
in and around the central hub for all us lobbyists and politicians it is.
Is this a satire community?
This is certainly not a real tweet that you posted.
Around DC where many DoD entities exist. I doubt it's like that in many other places
Definitely not a thing in Ottawa, Canada (where our Department of National Defence is)
Thats crazy
I lived there for many years and never once saw that...
The fact you called it the "subway" and not Metro makes me think you're full of shit right
I'm not from DC, but I've visited a number of times, and I said subway not Metro out of the assumption that people outside of DC wouldn't know what I was talking about if I said Metro. The ads I saw were near Pentagon City or Alexandria.
