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.

I'll admit that I am not clean, but I'll also say that this is a consumerist framing which is benefitting might and machine. We are all sinners in one shape or another under the machine because we rely on the machine.
We live under planned economies governed by the eternal hunger of the machine. They sell us shit on stick through advertisements, media control and machine collaboration.
We loken these monstrocities through the dissolvement of the machine through making oppositional societies that by grounds embrace the meaningful, and being opposed to might and machine.
How about you just try to minimise the hold the machine has on you instead of ranting poetically? And don't start with the old 'no ethical consumption under capitalism' because you don't need to actively make the world a worse place by choosing the most destructive means of consumption available to you.
No it’s actually pretty easy to be vegetarian.
it's pretty easy to be *mostly vegetarian, being fully vegetarian is a lot harder for those who are used to eating meat.
It's an important distinction to make, we're not going to convince people by being perfectionists, we convince people by actually helping them change their habits.
I tried to go vegan once. Didnt go well. Probably easy for you, but I couldnt do it. Probably sais something about how pathetic I am as a human being.
Thanks, I feel like shit now.
