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.

By your definition Schindler was a nazi, but by working for them he was able to save many lives… so I’m happy with anyone who continues to work with the goal of slowing down their progress.
Uh.. just so we're clear, Schindler in the movie and novel is a work of fiction, written in the 1980s by an Australian novelist.
The 'historical' Schindler was most definitely an enthusiastic Nazi.. Being a member of the separatist precursor to the Nazi party from afar (while he lived in Czechoslovakia), and then a member of the Nazi party when he moved to Germany after helping the Nazis invade and occupy Czechoslovakia. He worked as an intelligence agent for the Nazi party before and during the war, and there is no doubt that the work he did caused many thousands of deaths. He was then a war profiteer, using cheap Warsaw ghetto laborers in his freshly-purchased factories, which were confiscated from Jews.. He had absolutely no goals beyond self-service and Nazi ideals before finally growing a conscience circa 1942 once he realized the extreme brutality that was going on, and worked to protect (and add to) his cheap laborers.
In short, he's a complicated person.. most definitely a Nazi leading into and during most of the war, and probably a pretty terrible example.

Do you think he was the only one?
Crucial question: who are the Schindlers of today, so I can join them in better strategies than slavery?
