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.

Hmm, I guess they have to control it somehow. In US the land is super cheap, but even if you want to build a house yourself, you still have to goto contractors for materials and things, and everything ends up being more expensive than what a company can buy them for. So you end up with around the same price as a new house you can buy even if you save a bit of labor. Only people I've seen do it are people already in construction industry and can get materials for similar prices and use their connections for things
That's what I thought, and the person I spoke to is an architect. Maybe laws ate different in France, but I doubt it.
Houses here are like 400k€ Minimum so that matters ofc.
I'd love just having a community built somewhere, with people helping everyone. 🤗😌Is all.
Yeah, as someone who has moved so much, I miss community the most, and it looks like you can't really build a community. Specially not like the one you were born into. Where we grew up people did help each other, for houses you'd still need some people that are qualified and experienced, and people can chime in a bit of materials and labor. But when hiring help you still hired from your community.
And when some quality of life improvements comes whole community would do it at once. Like I remember we moving from ventless oven to oven that vents outside and we got some of the tools as a community and tool turn using it so everyone improved their ovens for cheap
