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.

The strawman was that anarchists supposedly care if you vote or not.
Of course not all anarchists vote, but those of us who are most committed to doing all we can, care about voting. We recognise that it's incredibly easy compared to arrestable actions, so it has a very good effort to effect efficiency. Those of us who believe in doing everything in our power are inclined to treat people who don't bother voting with suspicion, since it's so easy and it could have prevented the impending trans genocide if enough people had done it.
Do you think you're innocent?
No, I'm really dirty.
Cute.
By assuring the Harris campaign that you would vote for her no matter what, her campaign decided to ignore the uncommitted movement. You and the other blue-no-matter-whos made it impossible for us to pressure her to distance herself from Biden's genocide.
You are the reason Harris continued to support Biden's unpopular genocide, and the reason she lost. If people like you had helped us she would have campaigned differently, and won.
You don't get to wash your hands of that. You undermined the only power we have as voters to pressure candidates.
And you always will. You'll do it next time when they nominate Liz Cheney to run against Trump's third term.
Stop taking away our power to pressure Democrats.
