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

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

Really. It's definitely not good. But the ultimate violence?
I think bombs, or maybe chemical warfare would be worse.

~~Neocolonialism is much worse in my opinion because its impacts are not out right visible.~~

Violence is bad

you should go convince people in Ukraine, Gaza and Iran.

"oh! This is much better than being exploited by neocolonialism. Consider yourselves lucky."

👆

are you sure that that's not what you wrote? It looks bad, isn't it?

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 hours ago

On second tought. Yes this does look bad ._.

[–] Steve 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Nah. Not if the damage is so subtle you don't even notice for a while.

Realy what's worse: A mild ache that takes you a month to get checked out? Or an open femur fracture that'll bleed out in an hour?

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

A mild ache

Go tell that to the multiple generations of slaves who spent every waking moment in their life in misery.

I dont know about you but if I was in their shoes I would rather die from a chemical attack, than spend the rest of my life as cattle.

I think you're underestimating the potential suffering of a chemical attack that activates every nerve in your body.

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

But that stuff does at the very least kill you. Can you imagine what it would be like being forced to do hard labor for the rest of your life?

[–] Steve 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Not even close. Again I think you're underestimating the level of pain a human body can experience.
