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.

In Australia 72% of landlords own only one investment property. They fuck us over at every chance. It’s the same grift whoever plays it, they chase the highest market rates and pay the least expenses (I.e. neglect repairs, substandard maintenance, etc.)
28% of your investment properties being more than one is a fuck ton.
It’s still the overwhelming minority.
The issue of landlords is not simply big companies buying them all up like Americans are starting to experience, it’s landlords in general being the issue.
I think the issue is many people don't understand exactly how much renting fucks them because they've never owned a home.
They've never experienced paying the same month amount 10 years later while renters are paying twice to three times as much.
