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.

He wouldn't even pay them once they moved to Uganda.
If you consider the US relationship to Uganda, its very possible he'd pay them to function as mercenaries for the repression of Ugandan locals and the extraction of their domestic resources via compulsed and trafficked labor.
Right, consider the "We'll give..." part of the statement. He's got enough wealth to send every homeless person he see to Uganda with first class tickets, and then give them 8.13 a day for the rest of their lives, and he would never even notice the difference in his wealth. But the "We" in his statement says that he doesn't want to pay for it, he wants us to pay for it, with our taxes. Since I'm paying for it, I'd much rather have the homeless people get one of the thousands of empty homes here (in the US at least, we have more homes than homeless), medical care, and UBI. That's what we should be doing with our money instead of lining the pockets of billionaires and bombing elementary schools in Iran.
Gotta charge them back for transit, fuel, productivity time lost and discrepancies in projected profits. Looks like once in Uganda they owe $4.39 per day for ten years at which point they'll start to look into paying towards that daily $8.13. Unadjusted for inflation of course.
