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.

most honest people like to be able to explain (to themselves at the very least) why they are doing what it is that they are being told to do. When one can’t come up with a satisfying answer, that’s when the authority of the leader will need examining, having their integrity weighed and measured, and considered for rejection/replacement (choice of the follower to defect from that particular dictatorship). The issue these days is that most people have no deep driven reasoning for anything that they are doing on a day to day basis, aside from the usual tendencies towards self-preservation.

No. Some people just don't want to think about it and just do what they're told.
