Flippanarchy
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.

It's a mental disease. I hoard newspapers and it takes all my place's room, I have a problem. Replace that with money and items of value, I'm successful.
I started to agree because I've also described it this way, it's definitely something very like mental illness, hoarding for sure combined with super low empathy.
But, I can't really let it lie there, because in general mental illness - while accurate - carries pretty deep assumptions of care and accommodation, for me, and these folks do not merit that. Can't merit that, sadly and frustratingly to me.
They cannot be healed, certainly cannot be accommodated. In the worst of em it's a deep hole in their humanity that nothing can fill. Nothing. They invent horrors which yet again fail to close that hole. And again. And again.
Not sure if I'm agreeing or disagreeing with you I spose, just unpacking.
At this point myself I don't think it can be resolved and locking them up, taking all their assets, then letting them wither to death is the NICE thing we can do.
