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.

Doesn’t it mean a society without a hierarchical government?

That could result in chaos, like Syria in 2014. It could also result in a cooperative community, as demonstrated in many tribes. Wouldn’t it depend on how well we could all get along?

Anarchy is not just the lack of hierarchical government. It's one of its prerequisites, sure, but not the only one.

What are the other defining characteristics? I’ve always been under the impression that it’s defined by lawlessness.

Edit: Why downvote without responding? I’m not being critical. I’m genuinely asking a question.

Thank you. I’ll dig in when I have the time, unless you can summarize. There’s a lot of information in that description.

Wow, his body language is so aggressive for dating!

Plot twist: she's an anarchist, but gave the worst answer to get him to leave her alone.
