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 !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

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.

They didn't care when the Iranians killed tens of thousands either.
Seems they are quite self absorbed in general.
Were you also blindly parroting the Bush administration's lies about Iraq having WMDs and killing babies in incubators? Or was that one before your time?
What a bullshit argument. Lol.

Well, were you or were you not? Or is this your first time encountering war propaganda?
What's bullshit about it?
Iran killed way more than just tens of thousands, it was more like five gajillions
did you know the only source for that number is literally Trump himself?
So the 250 sources in the Wikipedia link I provided are all false?
Why do we federate with hexbear?

You literally did not link anything.
Just above.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran_massacres
lmao what Wikipedia link?
Just like OP, you paint Americans as a monolith, likely with zero actual evidence'
35% still are in on the USA Iran war, they elected a rapist con man (and more) Twice.
What proof do you need?
And of course there are fantastic americans in the USA, but we're talking geopolitics, not statistical outliers.
2/3 of Americans are outliers?
I didn't know 1/3 was needed to elect a president. /s
Technically 1 vote is enough if everybody else abstains
the electoral college would just choose someone if there were no popular vote.
Then 99.999% would be responsible for the election by doing nothing.
people aren't responsible for what others do.
sure looks like it, if you have the audacity to pretend your words have meaning.
this is incoherent
It's not. If you're not responsible for your words, why would we pretend to responsibilize others’?
i never said i'm not responsible for my words.
Then why would anyone read anyone’s words?
i'm sorry. i don't think i can have this conversation without a translator. have a nice day.
Now you need a translator to responsibilize the logics of not responsibilizing presses/texts🙄.
Have a disassociating day!
But they are responsible if they don't vote.
no, they're not.
Yes they are.
saying it doesn't make it true.
You seem to be just arguing in vad faith all over the place.

oh, thank God.
we're hardly statistical outliers.
Well what are you doing to stop the dismantling of your democracy? I mean you americans in general.
Do you have an actual reliable source for the "tens of thousands" claim? Not saying they weren't killing protesters, but I've yet to see a single reputable source claim it was that high.
Well yes I do.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran_massacres
Right, exactly my point.
Do you dispute the claim?
Then say that.
I'm talking about the range. Again, I'm not claiming they didn't kill protesters, it's the number.
So you dispute it. There are 250 references in the wikipedia link, but I guess your tankie friends has some magic better truth eh. But what a shitty thing to say, trying to reduce mass murder by a dictatorial regime to a numbers battle.
What s weird reply. I'm not a fucking tankie because I'm skeptical that Iran murdered 30,000 of it's own citizens over the course of like a week or whatever. Jesus Christ.
250 references.
250
What do you bring to the table other than a kremlin fueled gut feeling?
Cool, so why didn't you just reply to my original comment with just one valid news source?
Sealioning
Blocked
Lol still can't
ooo. block me, too!
one source can be debunked, but a gish gallup of 250 cannot
Exactly. Guess I was sealioning for asking for one valid source showing Iran killed 30,000 protestors.
