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.

Women have almost always through history needed a male supporter for housing or they needed to live in family cooperative situations.

Hell I'm a man and I stayed dating a woman I should have left (because she was abusive) because I couldn't have done without her part of the rent at the time. Shit happens ig. Got a new job and now I'm able to afford it alone, she's gone, shit rules.

We know pre-farming societies were far more balanced between the sexes, if not outright matriarchical

When 'women's rights' became a thing,and women could live as independent humans, young widows became an oddity.

I guess you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.

I think the rise in marriage age and reduction in wars also helped. Used to be a 21 year old mother of two lost her husband in some battle or workplace accident.

Killin your husband is a proud tradition we lrt go of as a people. It was like the one cool thing the heteros gave us. Maybe also half of freddie mercury.

Idk I'm a lot happier in a world where people can just leave. Like killing your abusive spouse when its your only option is one thing, but it's a tragedy that it has to happen.

Generally, yes, but my dating life has suffered from a severe deficit of young widows, and im only juuuuust getting to the age where an older one might consider me.
