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

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

So they learned to:

  • as quickly as possible, associate with the local mafia
  • use that mafia to threaten suspects with their lives to progress the case
  • respect other species

Alright, good start

Not anywhere near the worst police training, I'm sure.

[–] obre@slrpnk.net 18 points 2 days ago

Honestly that was my first thought too, although it's awful that that's where our expectations are at, any hour they're spending watching that is an hour not spent listening to killology psychopaths.

It’s a very, "idgaf, watch this movie" kind of educating.

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I whish I could get to spent watch a movie during work hours 😔

[–] P1nkman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I did that as a security guard for two months (we were allowed to). After a month, it gets really fucking boring. This was back in 2007, so no internet access on the computer.

Isn't that where Paul Paulos of St Paul paulice is?

The famously Paulest of all the Pauls?

[–] Whimsical418@aussie.zone 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

More Paul than a mall cop?

More Paul than a ST Paul Mall Police called Paul.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 2 days ago

That's apauling

[–] rockerface@lemmy.cafe 6 points 2 days ago

There were no Pauls left in the entire city after he was born. He took all of them.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 23 points 2 days ago

It's a movie about how the government created the crack epidemic to demonize minorities so yeah they should watch it.

[–] _chris@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Ten year old article.

Three years before Chauvin murdered Floyd.

They definitely learned a lot from the film.

[–] ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 19 hours ago

Imagine if they hadn't seen zootopia. How bad would it have been?

I dont get it. Can someone explain me the joke? 😕

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Joke is the rabbit kinda hot. Shouldn't be though because she cop.

[–] harambe69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I know I know, she cop...

[–] _chris@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Solid fucking gold man.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Chauvin was murdered by the Minneapolis Police. St Paul Police appear to be more chill.

Edit: Not "chill" chill, but rather "less murderous chill".

[–] possumparty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 17 hours ago

Floyd. Chauvin was the murderer.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nobody murdered Chauvin. He was thrown in jail. He may be murdered in jail but it hasn't happened yet.

[–] TowardsTheFuture@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 days ago

Listen furries are people too.

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Did they license it properly? That’s a public viewing.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I don’t think police training is open to the public.

If that station bought it legit, they can show it to anyone who works there.

[–] protogen420@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

if I bought the dvd, I can't put a tv on my lawn (if I was american and lived in a suburb) and play it there for anyone to watch?

am I reading this right?

[–] possumparty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

as long as you're not charging money, then yes. that is my understanding

[–] protogen420@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 8 hours ago

who the fuck wrote this laws

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Incorrect i believe.

Quote:

A movie night at a community center, a screening in a company break room, ... all qualify as public performances even if only a handful of people show up.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 days ago

The link you provided specifically calls out classroom instruction as an exception.

Also, IIRC, the whole thing is moot once your screening becomes invite only as that would be considered a private venue.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago

None of this applies to pirated media of course, because I downloaded it and made it mine

“Sir, why?”

We’ve done it, state violence is solved.

Welcome to Costco. I love you!
