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 [email protected]

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.

This, except the "authority" is just another hyena.

Or a ~~fat cat~~ lion who watches the hyenas

Isn't that what the comic implies when the hyena takes the police cap?

I like it, except that's so not how turtle shells work, lol.

Those aren't turtles.

There's talking gazelles...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I feel like that's somehow less of stretch

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

The same universe that evolved talking gazelles also evolved hermit turtles.

Trigger-happy pigs seeing peaceful protesters:

Hmm, they're dressed up in a uniform. Maybe they're justified in doing it?

I hate that I know people whose brains can't comprehend that authorities would allow a crime to take place, or would do it themselves

I've had discussions about police committing crimes and some of these guys are like 'they can't, that's illegal, they're not allowed to'; bruh, I know they're not allowed to (and some crimes, even if they're allowed to, they shouldn't be allowed to), I'm saying they're committing a crime; they still respond with 'but how? It's illegal'

I genuinely don't understand what mental hurdle is preventing them from grasping that authorities would commit a crime or would allow it to take place

these are people who could be tricked into tasting salt as sweet if you put it in the sugar container
