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.

Because the time may come that they take it and before that you may miss out on something just because someone else you don't directly know didn't eat. 1D chess nostrdumbass
Sorry, I don't follow. Miss out on what? I constantly miss out on all kinds of things (like skydiving, bouldering, etc) and my friends and I are completely fine.
If I ever need a new handle, I'm adopting "NostraDumbass" - that's funny as shit! 😂
Watch the kurzgesagt on altruism.
I watched it. Now what?
Sure, helping everyone on earth so we can all help each other is a nice ideal, but I'm not convinced that reality will play out positively.
Look at Africa: Most of the developed world is pumping billions into the continent, and all I see is that they're becoming dependent on us. Not good for them, not good for us. If we can share something for free (*cough* software) that's completely fine, but if we send them money and materials, and they squander it, because they have some corrupt leaders, then what?
We can't capture said corrupt leader, because Europe is the good guys, and we don't invade other countries, unlike dirty America... But is that actually helpful for this theoretical country?
You do realize that africa is poor because the IMF and the world bank keep it trapped in debt right?
This dumbass doesn't know what the IMF is much less how a debt trap works. He's gonna ask chat GPT when he sees your comment
I'm not convinced your "friends" aren't just using you in some way or are very casual acquaintances and you're not picking up on the distance. No one in your part of the spectrum with your sociopathic tendencies has friends, you have useful relationships. Mildly entertaining troll 6/10
