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

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.

Are you for real? Do you think work will cease to exist? Monetary compensation isn't the only thing that can be exchanged for work/art/etc.

We already have all sorts of contracts that don't involve money directly. Marriage is a contract, and that wouldn't just cease to exist.

People are selfish and greedy. There needs to be something to try to prevent and/or punish that. And literal force/violence is the only thing that can ever do it. Without it, there will always be people who abuse it.

So what happens is the person with the biggest gun/stick/army/etc. wins the dispute. Every time.

That's how you end up with feudalism. How come libertarians always need to personally re-learn every mistake and lesson we've already learned the hard way? It is literally currently destroying the US government.

Learn some history and we don't have to repeat the same mistakes again and again.

People are selfish and greedy.

Your proof of this?

If I needed a butt for my jokes I'd be talking to liberals.

Proof, please.
