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

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.
Join the matrix room for some real-time discussion.
they/them is often used as the default pronouns when someone doesn't know them.
Autism and ADHD are not mental illnesses, they're learning disabilities (technically ADHD is classified as an OHI, but that's not the point). Depression, BPD, Schizophrenia, and anxiety are mental illnesses. And while yes, chronic online usage may negatively affect some of the illnesses, they are not caused by online use and can not be transmitted over the internet. Online use does not cause or worsen disabilities.
Everyone should cut back on online usage. But not because of some ableist rhetoric from someone misunderstanding psychiatric advice, as well as someone who doesn't know the difference between a disability and a mental illness. You are comparing apples to oranges.
Keep telling me how my ADHD and autism is environmental. That insinuates that a change in environment and conditions would fix my disabilities. Keep fucking telling me that if I just went out and touched grass my autism and ADHD would go away. Keep telling me, someone with autism and ADHD that I am the ableist one for calling you out on your bullshit. If I could cure my disability I would. Fuck off
Massive difference between saying "mental illness is worsened by extensive time online" and "mental illness is contagious through the internet."
You're talking about memes. Not mental diseases. No mental diseases don't spread online and racism isn't a mental disease.
I can't thank you enough. I was firing up like 5 tabs to begin an extensively documented and time wasting reply when I saw you removed it.
You just saved my whole morning and I appreciate it.
E: Have to remember to not be looking at social media when the meds kick in. "Already be doing the thing you want to be doing."
I don't take medical advice from random strangers who know nothing about me.
I already replied to you about it and you keep it posting the same shit. What did you think was going to happen?
