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.

"Took another person an hour to make"
This part is going to be difficult.
The problem is that in 1 hour some people would do basically nothing and other people would do a ton. So the compensation's not really fair. Isn't 1 hour of a brain surgeon's time work more than a guy spinning a pizza shop sign.
Anyone who thinks about it for a second longer than it takes to read it will see the problem - this rules completely devalue skilled work. An hour of sweeping the floor is valued the same as hour-long operation on sick patient. Except cost of becoming a doctor is countless hours paid to teachers, professors etc. while cost of becoming a cleaner is just a broom. Rewards is the same, so why bother? Why take risky job or something that requires upstart investment? In fact you would need to work years as a menial worker before you afford learning any skilled job... unless we add loans but with loans we explain why there are billionaires "I never did 10 000 hours of work, but I loaned my hours with interest"
Also - anyone who does farming will most likely notice that a daily intake of food necessary to survival will probably cost you a week of work or so...
I'm all for treating everyone fairly, but this idea is the kinda shit that starts dystopias.

LOL. Some people's 1 hour is worth more than other's.
Are you going to pay them 1.5 hours for each hour worked?
If only there was a way we could keep track of how much value people earned in an hour of work.
