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 [email protected]

More important than opposition to the current system is the prefiguration of an anarchic one. So much online discourse is about attacking, a lot less is about building. I drew this to remind myself and others that confronting the state is only a part of the puzzle and building new systems without it is also important.

Libertarianism masquerading as leftism.

This is an anarchist comm. We aren't masquerading anything. We fight against all injustice: state, class, gender, sexuality. You know. Liberty for everyone equally.

K. The belief you can do that without community, and while centering self-interest, is classically childish anarchism.

But the memes here are good usually.

I don't think you understand anarchism or what we mean when we say "without a state". Hint: it's the opposite from "without community, and while centering self-interest,"

you might be confusing anarchism, the exact polar opposite of "without community" with the hyper-individualist flavor of american libertarianism

Libertarianism masquerading as leftism.

Since when does libertarianism "masquerade" as leftism? You do know that this is literally the original association of the term libertarian, right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Since they call themselves “anarchists.”

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Duh... that's what I'm trying to tell you, genius.

Who do you think used that term first, eh?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don’t care who used it first. I live in the year 2025. I care who uses it now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I care who uses it now.

Then why aren't you pestering the people who are misusing the term now?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Oh I pester them, too. But at least the anarchists have good memes.
