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.

So that's where you moved to, you tankie piece of shit.
I haven't "moved to" anything, I'm just crossposting and explaining a meme illustrating a valid grievance with Neoliberal politicians.
95 of them voted to honor the fascist scumbag
In contrast, 27 voting to stop selling weapons to Israel is treated as a fucking miracle.
And not that it matters, but I'm nothing close to a tankie. Check the sidebar of the community you're in, dumbass.
I also remember when they all stood for and applauded an actual Nazi in Parliament.
The "anti-tankie" people don't talk about that very much do they?
Sitting on a fence is why we are where we are.
They are delusional.
Why would they? They love supporting their flavor of fascism. This time it'll work!
Is it your impression that most of the Democrats are anything other than "conservative" in any normal political spectrum?
I objected to the meme but I actually think it's completely accurate as applied to most Democrats in congress or groups of people who think generally like them. It honestly just didn't even occur to me that by "liberals" you might mean that grouping though.
What does it matter where you are on an arbitrary spectrum if you're still participating in genocide?
Me: "Oh, you're right, yeah most of the Democrats in Washington are complicit in genocide. Looked at in that way I agree with your meme."
You: NO NO NO I WANT TO ARGUE YOU MUST BE WRONG ABOUT SOMETHING
Idk how often it needs to be pointed out that Americans dont have some special definition of liberal that has shed itself of all the problems of their European progenitors - they've simply forgotten all the ways in which liberalism runs ideological cover for exploitation.
"I agree with this meme if I detach myself of the liberal label" seems like a moment of self-awareness to me. Im not trying to discourage it, but I think it's important to look at how electoralism has broken people's understanding of political discourse.
In your addled mind, what is a tankie? Anyone to the left of Chuck Schumer? Anyone who isn't a fascist but also doesn't automatically support Hakeem Jeffries? Anyone who disagrees with your perspective and isn't a fascist?
For the record, I abhor tankies and their authoritarian bullshit. You can "make note" of that if you will.
You mean challenge Neoliberal supremacy of everything to the left of fascism. Neoliberalism isn't even left of center ffs! It's the ideology of Ronald Reagan, Joe Lieberman and Hakeem Jeffries.
Nah, sounds like you were plenty fucking sick already 🤷
I wasn't going to, but now that you're asking, I'll waste a few more sentences on your obtuse ass 😄
🥱🤫
Ooooh... when somebody starts whinging about "left unity" I smell liberal... is that what you are?
Piss off, liberal - this is not a safe space for you right-wingers, okay?
Hmmm, you claim to want left unity for liberal love for fascists, but you call anyone to the left of Biden a Tankie. Curious.
Bruh, I just read the whole thread. What's ypur problem?
Oh also, I fucking hate tankies.
Learn what it means then. Hint: The term was made by Marxist-Leninists.
Who here is a Tankie? This is an anarchist space. For anarchists.
Yet again, anyone to the left of Biden is a Tankie.
Kindly, stay out of it if you don't know about it. Please and thank you.
You're so nice and kind. No wonder why people like you here. ✨
