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.

Peter principle goes for everyone. Not just idiots

You are generally promoted based on your skill in your previous job. So when you are no longer proficient you are no longer eligible for promotion and you are stuck in a position you no longer excel at.

You can’t go back because it would probably be a paycut

But you can be fired and replaced by somebody else... or just fired, coworkers pick up the slack, for usually no pay increase.

Yet narccisistic idiots persist particularly well in management, at an inverse proportion to how specialized their actual work is.

Which should be the opposite of what you'd expect, because managers are generalists, easy to find and replace.

... but, the narcissistic culture / personality types of particularly management functions on the narcissistic masturbation of nepotism.

They protect themselves and their own, to the extent that both their personalities and social roles (jobs) are similar... remind them of themselves.
