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.

Its incredibly difficult to build a country, so i think the US was about the best attempt at a working system im aware of. The issue is that we didnt quite get the message of "all men were created equal" and we basically immedietely started othering. Hence, two party system, slavery, the idea that woman deserve less for the same job, the idea that working fast food should be difficult because you follow "the right path"

Its all excuses that people use to other. And just like the paradox of tolerance, the only solution is that othering is acceptable, but only against those that would other. If you want to divide lines between people and get them to fight each other, the social contract no longer applies to you and imo your "human rights" should be revoked. Those are an agreement that you will behave societally and recieve societal protections. And you chose not to do that.

Minorities are this countries best resource. And theyre also the best group to watch, because those that would target minorities would target you if goven the chance. Prioritize all your policies around protecting minorities and what do you know, suddenly everyone is protected. Attack minorities and what do you know, civil war, political unrest, tyranny.

Edit: further clarification on my first statement: i fucking hate the US. What i meant by that was only that its easier to build a future based off our current system with massive overhauls than it would be to build an entirely new system. As a metaphor, the worst nuclear war ever would be more easy to recover from than terrforming mars.
