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

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.

  1. Anarcho-nihilism is a thing. Personally I find it a little bleak, I think we should have a vision to move towards.
  2. So we can criticize voting itself, but not the parties that perpetuate it?

howabout this, rather than sit here and argue theory and bullshit... lets reframe what you're doing here and see if that's the person you idealize yourself to be.

You're coming to the defense of a powertripping mod that abuses their position to push centrist bullshit and then bans anyone who disagrees with them.
Would you, as an anarchist, come to defend any other self-appointed hierarchical leader that pushes harmful misinformation and silences critics? Hmm? Is this your ideal anarchist community member?

  1. I don't think the mod is power tripping. They used the piefed default ban length (2100-2026=74), and the mod is allowed to moderate their community as they see fit. They don't allow aggressive neoliberal talking points. That's their choice.
  2. I'm a fan of the community, so I'm familiar with the mod's behavior. They aren't centrist, they were criticizing the democratic party. I don't necessarily agree with the post, but that doesn't make it misinformation.
  3. As a mod of a few communities myself, we're custodians of a community, not "hierarchical leaders".
  4. The principle of free association means that I can freely interact with them as long as both parties see it as mutually beneficial. If I didn't like the mod, what they post, or their community, then I block them. If they don't like me, what I post, or my communities, then they block me.
