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

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

Person from the original comment, in the country where gender markers are only possible if you're intersex. Some people are determined to be intersex at birth, but you can get diagnosed later. That's usually when you phenotypically fit into the sex binary, but your hormone levels are above a certain threshold.

The threshold is kinda low, so e.g. me, AFAB, will get tested for T levels, and, if I'm lucky, be diagnosed as hormonally intersex, and be able to match the official gender marker to my gender (I can choose between X, something that's currently eluding me and no marker, and will go for the latter). Kinda like how some cis women are excluded from women's sports for having too much T, except in this case, it's wanted. Low key considering using bodybuilder T to skew the test, since it's bullshit that the gender marker can't reflect my gender.

Edit: T is testosterone. There's also many other types of intersex that also aren't 'having both parts'. Could be that there's ovaries inside and masc-reading genitals outside, or that the genitalia doesn't match the sex chromosomes, could be having more than two sex chromosomes (like XXY or XYY instead of just XX or XY), could be you go through a kinda puberty that doesn't match a purely estrogen based or testosterone based puberty, e.g. growing both breasts and a beard. There's sooo many possibilities, some of which will easily be caught at birth, some of which will only be caught later, or even never.
