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.

No that's not accurate. Centralized agricultural planning in pre-soviet Russia was still better than what the Soviets implemented, this was all very well documented that more people died as a result of the changes made.
Life expectancy was 28 years old before the Bolsheviks, after the land reforms and WW2 life expectancy rose dramatically to 60, what on Earth are you talking about
In 1845 it was 29, in 1920 it was 25, in 1945 it was 23.
They didnt beat 50 until the USSR had been around for 30 years.
LMFAO you literally went to the first google link provides on "life expectancy of Russia historic", the Statista website, and purposefully cherrypicked the two lowest points in the history of the USSR, which coincide with wars they famously didn't start (first being the civil war, second being WW2).
Why not pick 1930, the second year since land collectivization began, with the 37 years of life expectancy already (higher than at any point during Tsarism)? Why not pick 1940 with 41.5 years of life expectancy before Nazis invaded the USSR and murdered 27 million people?
You're a fucking joke lmao trying to lie to yourself by cherrypicking the lowest values coinciding with wars imposed on the Soviet Union
isn' RSA better than aes? i thought aes' keyspace was only like 56 bits or something.
edit: i looked it up. aes can take a 256 bit key. i was thinking of DES.
You responded to the wrong comment
i don't think so. i was making note of your username ;)
Oh hahaha it's actually a reference to Actually Existing Socialsim, but thanks
People would have lived longer and healthier if the USSR hadnt starved them.
Lmao keep trying, loser, you're just lying to yourself with your cherrypicking, not anyone else
Uh no the stats hurt your feelies
Po widdle baybee
Loser, keep lying to yourself. You had done exactly 0 research on it, you went to the literal first google link and cherry picked the two data points that suited you. You probably didn't even know about the fucking Russian civil war, uneducated swine
