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.

As a soc dem, capitalism is only slightly better but the system needs heavy regulations. But with the burgeoning AI and automation, I am starting to lean more towards socialism. I mean, after AI "companies" stole our data to train their AI with, isn't it only right that WE should actually take rightful ownership of that? At some point, AI and automation will become advanced enough that most jobs will be gone and humans would not be needed anymore. When that time comes, the ordinary folks should take their rightful stake in that automation revolution by taxing robots or take communal ownership of AI to fund universal basic income and services. That is the best socialism we can get. Not only we can finally rid of social ails that plague humanity due to unbridled capitalism, but also we are taking away full power from oligarchs who stole our own data to begin with. They would not be there if it weren't for us to begin with.
