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.

The number tattoos from the holocaust directly tie into early 'database software' aka tabulation machines developed by IBM. IBMs NYC HQ was involved the entire time from prewar census to ghettos to concentration camps. And then they made your first PC.

MY first PC, or THE first PC? Cuz a couple of years ago, IEEE recognized the Datapoint as manufacturing the first PC.

The statistically average persons first PC. My school didn't have a datapoint computer lab. The Amiga 500 didn't put a computer repair shop in every town. IBM was on top when computers were being put everywhere. And even when they weren't, "Dude, you're getting an IBM clone."

My first PC was zilog based. But yep, IBM 100% helped Nazi Germany catalog and track their prisoners on the way to the ovens. But like so many companies they've been allowed to whitewash their image.

Yep, they're basically the UIDs from IBM's system, or something pretty close to that.

They made Fisher-Price My First Computer?

How have I never heard of this?

Because IBM would strongly prefer you not know about it, and/or you haven't played the wikipedia 'how many clicks to Hitler' game enough.
