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.

Based as fuck, if more Americans had his balls we'd never have the fascism that Bush started.

Wilson really kicked it off. Nixon and Reagan got the ball momentum. I don't remember if Bush Sr. had a crime bill. Clinton poured fuel on the fire with his and Biden's Crime Bill. Then W sealed the deal with the Patriot Act, among some other bits of SCOTUS shenanigans.

Very true, Dubya is just the one in my lifetime that has moved the overton window and fascism furthest. Normalized a lot of what Trump is aiming to do.

I'd agree if he'd got the guy who did it, not just the first other cop he saw.

Is it still collective punishment when it's an army in the field and not pows?

Or is the important thing that there's a dude with a gun in an organization aimed at hurting you?

Sad fact: American police training involves teaching them to shout "drop the weapon" or similar after they shoot someone. Specifically because it sticks in the mind of witnesses and makes it easier to get away with shooting unarmed suspects.

Not guilty, next.

He killed A deputy. Not The deputy.

When the cops back the blue, when they lie and cheat to cover up their coworkers' misdeeds, they all become targets...

And look, my friend, this is old news. We have said for decades that either cops regulate themselves or they will be regulated by the people. Even now, this message is still falling on deaf ears.

He matched the description

We have a blue individual ....

With their matching clothes and arrogant gait, they all kind of look the same at 70-80 mph.

I think the father’s point is that the system is broken; not that he got revenge on his son’s specific killer, just some revenge on the system as a whole.

Vigilante justice is the only justice these days

What's the difference

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago

True father.

Can feel that eye contact through the screen Jesus christ

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago

They look so bitchmade when they gotta roll up in a gaggle, making sour stomach face. Hopefully, some of them will join the other coward's fate.

Does he have a give send go?

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Is that some temu version of Venmo or GoFundMe?

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 day ago

I think it's the same one that white woman got like $800k after calling a child a racial slur. Seems like a sketchy site

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Go fund me won’t allow fundraisers for people that are accused of violent crime but give send go will. Give send go is where the Luigi Mangione legal fund is it’s raised 1 million so far.

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Ah tx. Knew gfm wouldn't allow them for convicted criminals but now not even for accused? That's fucked up
