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.
Join the matrix room for some real-time discussion.
The lib politicians did not roll over to facism, they rolled over for money ... for loosely regulated and barely looked at Super PAC donations and withdrawals. They rolled over for legalized corruption. Fascism is just the gift wrap that they had to take those presents in.
This lady is kind of right. We are not likely to vote our way out of this.
you mostly described how fascism made them roll over.
That's the point. It could have been anything the politicians and news media cooked up. They could have created a crazed religious movement, a hate filled campaign against another country, they could attack another religion ... except MAGA went "fuck it" and checked "All of the Above".
It's not about the message. Tyranny does not thrive in peace. It is about directing the weak willed portion of the population that they have complete control over.
Idk, they seem okay with it as long as they're the ones in control.
Just look at their responses to the election it's not that we ran an unpopular candidate and gop lite policies it's because we didn't go far enough to the right!
Agreed. I wonder if the Dem/Rep political parties are about to flip and trade conservative/liberal policies again.
Doubtful. Most we can hope for is both splitting up.
And have many smaller ones
That's not how the American political system works. Parties have changed ideology or collapsed and been replaced with new ones, but there's always only two major parties.
I dont think they would do that, it would be harder to trade wins.
True, but at some point they'll just want to stay in power. So we'll probably just have dnc officially merge into gop at some point
Isn't that fascism?
Close enough.
