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.

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.

As an aside, I've seen this happen elsewhere as well. Classic play for wage theft. When I was working as a bartender in London to make ends meet, I had a coworker from Mexico on an expired visa. Great guy and the most hardworking. Well won't you guess it, guy got picked up by immigration authority on payday.

If you think so too, quickly tell me who was the richest person in ancient Sumeria!

More important than opposition to the current system is the prefiguration of an anarchic one. So much online discourse is about attacking, a lot less is about building. I drew this to remind myself and others that confronting the state is only a part of the puzzle and building new systems without it is also important.

I'm rereading Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus, and seeing Trump on a muted TV made me think of this quote
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
Alt text:
A candid photo of Donald Trump talking on a cellphone, partially obscured by others, edited to appear as though he's being photographed through dirty glass. Typewriter font text of a quote from Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus, aligned along the right side of the image, reads:
A man is
talking on
the telephone
behind a glass
partition;
We cannot
hear him but
we witness his
incomprehensible
dumb show:
One wonders
why he is alive
