Illegalism is an anarchist philosophy which embraces criminality as a lifestyle. It's the second part of the renowned and enlightened charter: "Be Gay, Do Crime"

This is a place for exchanging tricks & experiences, discussing trends & events, sharing shitposts, and connecting criminality to theory & praxis.

Buggs Bunny laughing and holding the Simple Sabotage Field Manual, from a scene in which he reads from a book the words "diabolical sabotage", linked below

"Dia-bo-lical sab-o-taygee" ~Buggs Bunny

It can be something you came up with yourself or came across elsewhere- doesn't have to be from the manual!

Good work, everyone. Pour one out for me though because I have no self control or sense of preservation

This is King Missile of Detachable Penis fame.

The lyrics have stayed in my head for decades:

Rubber bands, paper clips, memo pads, folders
Take 'em from work
It's the best way to feel better
About your low pay and appalling working conditions

It's your duty as an oppressed worker to steal from your exploiters
It's gonna be an outstanding day

Take stuff from work
And goof off on the company time
I wrote this at work
They're paying me to write about stuff I steal from them
Life is good

Large pink text made to look like a neon sign which reads "I'm bored now", followed by much smaller simpler text which reads "Someone else please take over"

A McDonalds advertisement featuring an unintentionally creepy, humanoid Happy Meal, holding a sign which has been edited to read "laws don't exist." Stylized caption reads "capitalism is failing. Steal from your job. Make art and buy ammo. All mainstream media is political propaganda.

Caption reads "LPT: Keep fart spray and a tear stick in your bag. You can get away with anything when you're crying because you shit your pants." Image is the "Roll Safe" meme featuring a man tapping his head and smiling, but has been edited to be crying. Beside him are a spray bottle of "liquid ass" and a tear stick.

(A tear stick has menthol and camphor in it and bad actors put it under their eyes to make them cry)

Luigi Mangione, with his head tilted to the side, compressed lips, and a furrowed brow, looking away from text which reads: "Killing innocent people for the sake of breaking the law."
Luigi Mangione, with raised brows and an approving frown (like the Obama "not bad" expression), looking at text which reads: "killing certified badguys in blatant disregard for the law."


This distinction is a lil frustrating for me because I just so happen to also be an amoralist, but it's not inherent to illegalism

I loved this comment by @FundMECFS@lemmy.dbzer0.com

We can think breaking laws in general is good because it makes these useless laws harder to enforce if a lot of people break them. Ie. its a form of resistance against the state.

But [we can] also be staunchly against terrible things like random killings and sexual assault.

One doesn’t entail the other.
