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.

Imo, legality is the best single metric for morality.

It's not perfect, but uf you look at the 'on the books but actually okay' stuff like rape and killing people with your car, it looks even better. Like, you coild do an okay-ish job of low effort simulating an above average conscience by accepting and inverting 'legal=moral'.
