My dad used to love the line, "when you start earning money you'll become a Republican too". Um, no. I debated him for decades and, much to his credit, it paid off. He's been a solid Dem voter for the last 3 elections. I'm very proud of him!

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.

Nope, it's called empathy: being able to relate to the feelings someone ELSE is having, even though you are not.
It’s fine to do it selfishly too, I want everyone to live a dignified existence because I think that world would be much more pleasant to exist in.
a smart selfish person is indistinguishable from an altruistic one.
best things for someone is to live in a safe happy society. not wanting that isn't selfish, it's stupid
