Fuck all this "let's not celebrate the gruesome murder of a political opponent" bullshit, the man was a stochastic terrorist. Let's dunk on the douchebag and piss on his grave together. I hope more fascists like him get it through the neck

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.

Trump... just gave a speech, an address, whatever, from the Oval Office.
Partial (?) Transcription:
Uh... yep, yep, this our Reichstag Fire.
This is an open ended and limitless declaration of total intolerance for any political dissidence, a call to action and unity of national purpose/faith in the pursuit or specifically Charlie Kirk's conception of America, a pledge to avenge his memory going forward for 'countless generations'.
... See?
It can always get worse.
EDIT:
As this is still getting updoots, people are still reading this, so, more context.
Evidently, as best I can tell, this is from an AI generated speech/video.
However, this AI generated video was also directly posted by Trump's real account.
So... what this means is that we are in an ... Equilibrium situation.
What I mean by that is that the regime is literally using a convincing digital likeness of the prime figurehead of the regime, produced and published, intentionally, by themselves... as opposed to actually filming the actual figurehead.
(If I rember right I think this also happens in V for Vendetta, the film version at least? I am not 100% sure.)
Probably less important but still concerning to at least myself is that I did not immediately clock this.
This is uh, doubleplusungood.
We are now in full, comprehensive, alternate reality mode.
... I think the 9/11 of 2001 had less wild speculation, bad information, total media and public confusion going on than... this current 9/11 of 2025.
Also, apparently a bomb threat has just been called in to the DNC HQ in DC.
Shit is getting wild, fucking fast.
Yeah well if the democrats reaction to everything Trump has done has taught us anything, it’s that it’s going to have to get a lot worse before they’ll get off their asses to help.
This was always coming. Putting it off helped nobody but the fascists.
... The Dems may be on the verge of getting purged ala the KPD.
Literally forced to flee, effectively abdicate their positions, due to a mass crackdown.
The Dems will largely only realize they actually are fucked when they literally are arrested and jailed.
Please. The liberals are already "reaching across the aisle" to shed tears for this dead fascist - the only "help" we can expect from liberals is bigger budgets for all the paramilitaries.
Was always gonna get worse. Unless the big fascists died. Vance, miller, bannon, may e trump himself but without hsndlers he might've just flailed.
Don't forget their billionaire masters.
If you really believe the fascists are coming for us then go out and buy a gun, put a nice rainbow flag or black lives matter sticker on it, and prepare for the resistance. Don't be afraid, be armed.
I am currently crippled.
... I do not really have that option.
Hopefully I can at least provide useful info or reasonable opinions.
Respectfully, you would have to be quite severely crippled to be unable to shoot a fascist. Not saying you need to be on the front lines, but get a gun.
I can't walk.
Not more than a few minutes, gotta use braces and crutches or a cane to bump that up to maybe 45 minutes, before the pain is unbearable.
I only have one good hand.
And it is not my dominant hand.
Not trying to generally disagree with your advice, trying to say that I am indeed pretty fucking crippled at the moment.
Good news is prognosis of significant recovery is possible, but its gonna be a while longer of PT.
Whole lot of highly overstressed muscles and tendons, some seriously torn, good bit a nerve damage, at least all the fractures have healed by now.
Well if your recovery is not as good as you like, assistance devices are getting better and cheaper

We'll have you doing wetwork one way or the other
Hah, I mean, unironically, something like that would help me greatly, but uh you know, healthcare's just great in the US and all, superduper affordable and all that.
If that's the route you want to go you're going to need a lot more than just range toys.
On the ground organization and actual OPSEC are arguably more important, but I agree with the sentiment.
People always say this but whoever got Charlie didn't need more than that so I disagree. You're not facing down the Air Force directly, you're taking out leadership as you get the opportunity.
Besides, the implication of your argument is that we shouldn't try because it will be hard and I think that's some bullshit. Of course it will be hard but resistance is also necessary in the case where our very lives are being threatened. If you have to resist it's better to do so with even a poor tool than it is to be empty handed.
If assassinations could win wars we'd already be living in an anarchist utopia - that's what anarchists used to be famous for, remember?
Not at all... but it's going to require a lot of "back-to-the-drawing-board" thinking.
What is guerilla war if not a series of well-planned assassinations by a much worse armed force. The USA showed the whole world how effective that tactic is at winning wars, by losing to it again and again.
That is absolutely not what insurgencies are. Assassination is a tactic - not a strategy - and it is most definitely not some "lens" through which to flatten and simplify what insurgency actually is. It's that very kind of superficial thinking that is the whole reason the US military establishment cannot fathom why they can't seem to win at this kind of warfare.
Just remember this... even dodgy tankie outfits like the Weather Underground and the RAF understood that assassination could only get them so far before it began backfiring on them in a big way - and, with hindsight, it's easy to see that they were still being way too optimistic about it.
Sure you want to hold onto this idea?
What is warfare if not assassinations on a large scale?
FTFY.
That is certainly how colonisers view warfare - they do have the propaganda machines to explain it all away, after all.
Are you sure YOU do?
Assassination and slaughter are both describing the same thing. The only real difference is scale. Either way you've got one group of people deciding to achieve their goals via targeted violence against their enemies.
No, and no - the difference is vast.
I have to admit - I'm quite disturbed that people who are discussing the use of force against one of the most violent empires in human history doesn't seem to understand the concept of force all that well.
Don't forget that the whole thing was AI-generated too... https://files.catbox.moe/lix5jz.mp4
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be seeing. something weird with his fingers? it looks like some upscaling glitch.
Damnnnn
According to this the weird glitching is a result of digitally stitching clips together, which is pretty feasible. It's unlikely Trump can speak for that long without needing some editing. Still shady to digitally manipulate an official video from the White House.
Ok, plausible, but:
... Why does the lighting/shadowing of the tree, in the window behind him... also morph, at the same time as the nonsense hand motion... and then never changes again?
Look, you can see that morph, right above his head, at the exact same time.
Why does he suddenly have a more old school stereotypical NE accent on 'horror' (harrah) right before the hand nonsense happens?
Am I wrong here or... does he normally not pronounce 'horror' like that?
... Did...
... did he fucking stroke out, mid-take, and... you can maybe tell the passage of time via calculating the lighting angle change in the background, the time between takes that got morph-spliced together?
He's looking pretty uh, like had a stroke, today, at the 9/11 memorial service.
Because trees rustle and the silence removal tool seems like a speed-up.

Though I don't know about the hand thing. Compression blurring things maybe?
