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

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

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.
-
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.

I mean... okay. You're baiting tankies - as one does.
But looking at this I have to note that I wish anarchists wouldn't simply remember anarchist Catalonia and anarchist Ukraine only when arguing with liberals and tankies, but also cast a critical eye on these doomed experiments - because, spoiler alert, the anarchists involved also made some serious mistakes that one can't actually blame on tankies, liberals and fascists.
And I don't see anarchists doing that.
I don't see you doing it either. What failed experiments?
Without details your comment is meaningless complaining, especially to someone who may be ignorant (like I am) to what you're referring.
You don't see me doing what?
Do you see any extant large scale anarchist social experiments around?
Casting a critical eye on failed experiments. Which failed experiments? Where did those anarchists go wrong?
You're saying a lot without saying anything.
I'm asking for examples of what you're talking about, because there's not much context with which to understand what you're trying to say and I wish to learn.
It sounds like you have an idea of what can be avoided/done in future but without articulating specifics your comment isn't particularly helpful, so I'm asking for more detail so we can learn and improve.
You mean, apart from... all of them?
Again... do you see any extant large scale anarchist social experiments around?
You mean like... why did anarchist Catalonia cease to be anarchist Catalonia before any fascist had even set foot in it? Like that?
Ah okay, so you had no intention of actually adding anything of value, you're just baiting anarchists. Good to know.
I take you only self-label as an anarchist for the vibes, then?
This isnt to bait tankies, its to warn leftists not to let them get close.
We already allow them to get close - they are literally crawling all over Db0. I can barely look at my inbox because it's full of tankies throwing inane wall-of-texts at me that all boil down to, "no, states totally will wither away on their own, trust me bro."
I honestly have to thank you.
I just realized a mistake I did at a queerchat, that retrospecting with your reminder, made me realize I befriended a commie that too easily used cops.
I pray I can safely leave my hell.
