Flippanarchy
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.

Yep. Gotta give them something in their actual lives.
And that's why building mutual aid networks is so important. When people don't have to sell themselves to acquire their basic necessities, they gain back the power over their own destiny, preventing them from turning into sycophants out of desperation.
Those networks are far more effective as genuonely mutual aid though, when it's not just a second power structure that while not useless is only alternates for the last couple links in a long supply chain.
Creating new sources, replacing links farther up, and showing people their own agency to reduce alienation is such a big deal in making them capable independent peers, rather than just tools with a handle you can hold.
