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.

when you read/listen/watch about inventors from the industrialisation period, they were often—if not always—motivated by profit and not philanthropy.

Because they also wanted to eat.

Beyond a certain point, they would have no trouble eating. It's more like, once the machine of expansion really gets going, and you've poured your life into it, stopping would be hard. You like expanding your business. You're good at it. You're not an idle rich loser like all those other dilettantes at the club!

Elon's most obvious trait is the gaping void of insecurity that can never be filled. If he isn't the genius who will one day prove everyone wrong, who the fuck is he? He is constantly grasping for that warm feeling of having made it, and he is incapable of it. He is a machine built of suffering, his own and many, many others.

One thing I feel almost sorry for him about is that he really wants that Tony Stark public image back, but at this point it's never going to happen again, and he can't accept that.

All that money and such a miserable man. He could've invested in a therapist.
