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.

Trump is a symptom of a much broader issue, he is not the cause.
He did not create racism or white supremacy but he's been able to take advantage of both while increasing hardships on the white populace who voted for him.
He did not create the housing crisis. That's been an ongoing issue for decades, a problem that has gotten worse post-2008 and left unaddressed by two Democratic presidents.
He did not create the institutionalized ponzi scheme that is the stock market but he's taken advantage of it to maximum benefit, likewise many federal level legislators.
He did not invent judicial or government corruption but has used both to his advantage.
He did not create ICE but he's using them to bolster hin image to his foolish followers.
He did not create the military industrial complex or the western fossil fuel industry that uses them to do their bidding.
He's a problem but he's far from being THE problem.
