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.

Hell yeah welcome to the struggle.
Just remember you don’t need to agree with every mainstream anarchist take to call yourself an anarchist. That’s the best part and one of many things that set this movement a cut above other leftist movements.
We are happy to have you! 🥰 There is an anarchist book i highly recommend. You can read all of it or just pick sections you find interesting.
People ask "how can anarchism work? Don't we need a boss?" Or "How would things be managed?". And this book explains it very well :)

Please don't take this the wrong way, what do Anarchists do irl that is making a difference? From what I see, most of the posting is leftist views, but what seperates them from other left leaning groups aside from viewpoints?
Prefiguration.
The idea of resisting domination by living outside it. Creating your own grassroots community structures without state or corporate control.
the fediverse is inherently propaganda for the possibility of anarchism
Isn't one of the main lemmy devs a staunch communist?
Yeah, but that doesn't mean is the difect intention or that it has to be enforced we can find our own meaning.
Me posting this meme with the full knowledge that it might make it to “All” and generate a shitshow of a comment section
posting anti-tankie and anti-electoralism stuff in an Anarchism comm is one of the easiest way to generate infinite salt.
Turn off your notifications mate. And don't return to the scene of the crime
But where's the fun in that?!
You're my hero
This community is just popular enough to make it to /all, but not popular enough to drown out all the liberals/tankies that come here.
^I^ ^phrased^ ^this^ ^horribly^ ^sorry^
Are you though?
Am I what?
Edit: Oh, you mean if I am sorry, well, I'm sorry I can't phrase it properly.
Don't even have to be an anarchist, just have to have at least partial hearing and/or vision.
Not even. I’m deaf and have terrible vision. In fact I was functionally blind for 8 months. And I can still see it!
Okay, have to have at least partial use of at least one sense.
So basically not be in a deep coma? Because I don’t think there is a disability where you losing touch hearing sight and smell.
I was going to suggest "be awake" and then realised I had accidentally re-invented the term "woke"
