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.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

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.
Sure, and I am fine with that.
Capitalism is an economic system where some can profit off of the labor of others. 'Some' are known as the bourgeois, and 'others' are the proletariat. This system is definitionally unequal.
Communism is a stateless, classless, moneyless society. It doesn't employ a dictator. The people themselves manage society in whatever structure is best.
Taxes, social services, and other benefits are no substitute for abolishing the exploitation at its source by moving past capitalism into socialism. Socialism is a transitory society characterized by workers owning the means of production and centralized government planning. Its eventual goal is communism even if it never achieves it.
I hope this helps.
