Flippanarchy
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.

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.

What's that?
I'm new to anarchism.
Tldr unions get real big and do more and more and knit together more and more with less and less use for money and stuff until there's literally no more excuse for the bosses and governments or close enough as to make no difference it was way more plausible a century ago when unions ran things like social clubs and hospitals even in anti labor places like the united States but it took a pretty big hit when the shitlibs blockades Spain except German and itallian weapons during the civil war
Yeah, anarcho syndicalism was so threatening as a concept that both the Nazis and Stalinists tried very hard to kill it, the first from without and the second from within.
I'm willing to kind of give the stalinists a pass here they just didn't know how to help without being dicks no way they did more damage than the fucking piece of shit libs who said only Nazis can go in and out
You must not know about the level of infighting and shit flinging they did, and still perpetuate, to this day, labelling anyone who didn't fully support Stalinism as a Trotskyist and traitor to communism.
There are very, very good historical reasons for why Anarchists are weary of 'Marxist-Leninists'.
Nearly everytime they've tried to cooperate against capitalism, the Leninists or Stalinists then betray and or kill all of the Anarchists or others who weren't fully aligned with them.
I'm not defending them I'm just saying you can't really talk shit to them in this instance while the war was ongoing and not since without mentioning the global libs yes they do tend to be backstabby I'm well aware
... I can talk all the shit I want.
'Allies' who backstab you and try to kill you after they appoint themselves as the leaders of the movement that you started in your own country... are not great allies.
They're not I wouldn't choose them at least they showed up and brought guns it might not have been worth it but it was something the libs agreed nobody but the fascists was allowed to do that feels worse
