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.

If you only seriously realize this when using some random social media app, you're the perfect example of how this could have happened. If not, then all the more so.

I realized that they basically defunded the CDC now because I live REALLY far away from america and dont subscribe to depressing us news

It's less trustworthy in the guidelines but it's not defunded.

Yes, but it's incorrect if you act like it's gone too.

Why are you acting like there's no problem? There is one—and it's a huge one!

Edit: I'm talking to the same person, right? What's that all about? A discussion needs arguments, not smurf accounts. Internet points aren't a measure of anything. GTFO!

Stop removed about smurf accounts, we just think you're a dumbass.

Then maybe you should hold back on making sarcastic comments about things you know nothing about.

Aside from the fact that mainstream social media apps are being misused by billionaires for their own purposes, that’s the biggest problem here: people who get in the way of a meaningful discussion because they feel the need to post something they find funny.

This isn’t a topic where jokes are appropriate. You may not grasp the consequences, but it’s exactly as I say: Hundreds of thousands of people are dying because of this.

And yet: You think this is a joke. That’s disgusting, nothing more.

I was not being sarcastic.

yall ACTUALLY need to revolt

It really couldn't be more obvious that I'm not from the US.

Please spare me that, because nobody reads that far on social media anyway. So you're basically talking just to me right now, and I don't get at all what you're getting at with your slogans.

Seriously, don't bother. Just don't reply if you don't have anything meaningful to contribute.

Edit: Go easy on the downvotes, too—smurf accounts don't make your life any better; in fact, they make it pretty pathetic—even more pathetic than it already is, apparently.

To put it bluntly: The fact that you're resorting to these measures proves my previous statement correct.
