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]

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.

and all that guy does is poke at it for not having perfect meter when the history of comedic music from Gilbert & Sullivan to Weird Al is rife with elongations and contractions to make a joke fit a melody

If he’s a stickler for the format he’s a fed

This meme format has legs

Or a computer scientist. They seem to be sticklers for format as well.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Are they the sticklers, or is it the lazy ass compiler?

If he's got no sense of rythm he's a fed.

if someone posts a joke

Do you really suggest I stress that on "one" and... what, the emptiness at the end of the line? A stressed pause? Courageous.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I wouldn't dare suggest what you stress in an anarchy community.

Oh, btw, here's the 'h' you dropped from rhythm. Have some more so you've got spares.

Someone seems to have confused "no rulers" with "no rules". Also there's no h in ῥυθμός that's some Anglo colonialism you're involved in, there. You probably stole all of those from the French.

there's no h in ῥυθμός

Not acknowledging that that rough breathing mark is an "h" is the real Anglo colonialism here.

Joke's on you, am not an Anglo.

excuse me, but as a Greek, what the fuck is this ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Copied it from wiktionary, didn't bother caring about ancient vs. modern. Especially given that the only reason I can read it is maths.

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

I'm not Greek and know nothing about the diacritics, but from wikipedia seems to just be ρ with rough breathing. Should be "rhe"? I may be saying the complete obvious, that's just what I got from the wiki :p

It indeed is "rhythmos".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know, but the letter is actually just ρ. We don't have a different sounding r in Greek

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Modern greek. The word's from ancient greek;

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CF%81%CF%85%CE%B8%CE%BC%CF%8C%CF%82

Notice how the modern word dropped that diacritic

Daym, corrected by a Non-Greek >_<

What studying natural sciences does to a mf (I am intimately familiar with the Greek alphabet, despite not speaking a word of Greek)

Good idea, but change the "someone" to "somebody". Breaking rules on purpose doesn't work if you also break them on accident.

i love jokes. i'd love to laugh at one someday.
