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 dont agree that we need money. Sure, we need money under todays machine, but the machine can be dissolved.
Money in its most basic form, is simply an IOU used to facilitate trade, instead of relying on a fractal of barter arrangements. Strip away all the systems and mechanisms we've surrounded it with, and I still don't see how you are going to replace that core functionality until a star-trek style post-scarcity is actually achieved.
Money relies on miltarized exploitative ownership. Did not exist until that. Is a military logitics tech, not civil society.
