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.

Stick a potato in a tailpipe and the back pressure will blow up the exhaust manifold!
I actually did this as a kid and it just pops out like cork.
Internet said shove it deep into the exhaust pipe with a broomstick.
When you do this it pops out just like a potato cannon.
Turns out that exploding gasoline is stronger than the friction of a slippery potato in a steel tube. Who'd have thought.
Did the potato too, and the engine couldn't start, the potato just blocked the exhaust.
Man I heard about the sugar in the gas though, one of those rumors of the day back then I guess.
I also heard about dig a hole and put fertilizer around dynamite to augment the destructiveness, and that seems to be correct.
