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.

Sadly true, but from the inside there's basically two choices, which I find hard not to call "Dumb and Dumber."
The D party plays to college graduates who have good jobs (like me) - it works, but I call it the Dumb party because a lot of what they promise gets destroyed before actual implementation. Continuing to vote for false promises of smart solutions: Dumb in my book.
Then there's the other choice: Dumber.
Always have the choice to start over ๐
When I see an independent candidate worthy of the vote, I vote for them. Unfortunately, most independents that have appeared on my ballots would fall into the "Dumbest" category.
That's a tough situation
I started calling it Floriduh a couple of years ago, lived here for 50+ more years before that, it's kind of sliding down suntan-oiled rails to hell.
I've never been and don't plan on it, lol.
You seen a beach you like? Stick with it, there's nothing magic left here.
I don't think there's much that would get me to set foot in America, lol
Yeah, the past 10 years have been even more embarassing than the previous 15 were.
I mean if you look at the true history of the US and not the whitewashed version, it was kind of inevitable
I'd really like to see the outcome of the timeline where Bush Jr didn't win...
I'd like to seethe timeline where the natives in the Americas successfully fought off the invaders.
That wasn't in their nature, not near strongly enough to succeeed.
Bush Jr only got the Whitehouse by a small negative margin plus a hissy fit legal fight and Gore who didn't really want the honor of presiding over the post .com economic crash.
I'd like to see the timeline where the asteroid missed the planet, and the dinosaurs survived, and no apes with opposable thumbs figured out how to pump enough gas into the planet's atmosphere to cause an extinction event for the rest of the 10 million species they're taking with them.
