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.

Honestly the idea that they are selling people their own wormtongue is actually about right, its wild that one of the companies involved is even palantir.

But yeah this is meant to get everyone separated and with only 1 person to talk to, the computer, which will never belittle you or correct you. It will just casually lock you in your cage and say that you never could have done anything without it. Learned helplessness with dopamine feedback loop.

They're Saruman.

They thought they'd use the powers of Sauron to their own ends, for their own betterment, to achieve useful goals.... they think they can negotiate and plot with Sauron as an equal, who repsects them.

They do not realize that the nature of Sauron is insidious, is to corrupt... they do not comprehend the magnitude and the scope of the power they foolishly think themselves sufficiently clever to wield ... they do not realize that Sauron perverts the minds and nature of his acolytes into generally not even being able to consider or think of disagreeing with him.

Corruptible, contemptible, vain... men.

Look how they even literally, very directly, destroy the beauty of the natural land around them, in a mad, paradoxical quest to 'apparently' preserve it and increase its bounty.
