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.

Germans said the same in 1938
Germany' Republic fell in the early 1930s because a splintered left failed to form a government for years and a right wing party took control as a result.
German Communists: "guys we either do a revolution RIGHT NOW or we're getting overrun by fascists"
German Socialdemocrats: murder Rosa Luxembourg and end the communist movement through state violence
German Socialdemocrats: "dang, how did the fascists get so powerful? Must be the fault of the communists I guess"
When Rosa Luxembourg was murdered fascism wasn't an international threat but a local Italian movement at best. Or is everything you don't like fascism to you?
Funny how communists were aware of the dangers of fascism though and tried to warn anyone and everyone about it though. Maybe because their (our) political analysis makes sense?
That might be funny if you can show an actual contemporary quote, otherwise it's just your non-historical babbling.
I really don't know what kind of mental exercise you're trying to do. Do you really think that the core characteristics of fascism were invented in Italy in that particular period? Rosa Luxembourg, as any revolutionary from the late 1910s, was very aware of the core belief system of fascism. Proto-fascist groups such as the Black Hundreds in Russia were well known, and Italian/Nazi fascism doesn't stray very far from the core of these people.
