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

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.

I was so, so very close to directly calling jordanlund a shitlib after it was almost certainly him who mod deleted my comment, in my own thread, in .world, stating that, speaking from a historical standpoint, the only thing that stops fascists is bullets in their brains.

He of course interpreted that as 'advocating violence', because ... he is a shitlib.

But instead, I composed myself and wrote a more eloquent explanation as to why my comment had been deleted... and, so far, at least that response hasn't been deleted.

Why not post to power tripping bastards?

Because we already know the .world mod/admin team is a bunch of shit lib collaborators from how they acted when Luigi was framed for shooting some asshole who murdered tens of thousands of people by overseeing the denial of their healthcare.

Sorry to rant but goddamnit am I on the exact same wavelength as this post right now.

Jordan, if you read this, go fuck yourself and keep telling yourself Warren was a better choice than Bernie, you slimy rat fuck.

Jordan probably is reading this, he loves scanning comments for people talking about him and then whining about it. Same for a few other common .world users.

But man, Jordan literally banned one of my favorite users from a community because they caught Jodan lying about his poitions and documenting the fact the Dems actively did not care about the lives of brown people home and abroad and queer folk.

.world is a shitlib encampment.

The .world shitlib community has absolutely lost its fucking mind. They were unironically sticking up for Elon musk again already a couple days ago. Fucking depressing.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"No you don't get it, if Musk funded Democrats he'd be tolerable! Ignore everything else, if he's blue he's good!"

They're kinda forgetting about the nazi salute.

Do you... Do you really think they're forgetting?

saying the only thing that stops fascists is bullets in their brains

So, first off, banning this as violence suggests stopping fascists is generally desirable; a position i don't think he shares.

Second: that's blatantly untrue. They're not, like, werewolves. Putting aside how that whole myth is an allegory for the abuse cycle and they kind of are. There's lots of places shooting them would work, depending on the bullet and availability of medical care. Plus, things other than bullets that worked. There's ectensive research by zukov et al suggesting it can be done with an artillery shell, and anecdotes from research in the pacific islands backing the 'sharp stick' hypothesis.

So maybe you're the real fascist.

How do we know they aren't vampires? They cover their faces when inside and protect themselves from sunlight by wearing full military gear outside.

I used to defend JordanLund when people called him a Zionist

After his recent actions banning anti-zionist voices on WorldNews, banning Independent media that reports on the genocide, and banning pro-palestinian emancipatory slogans, it's overwhelmingly obvious he is at the very least a Zionist Sympathizer

He's also terribly reactionary on many social issues

I hate being that cringe guy in the comments posting FD quotes, but this one is such a banger

Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress

But in condemning violence it would be an act of irresponsibility not to be as strong in condemning the conditions in our society that cause people to feel so angry that they have no alternative but to engage in riots. What we must see is that a riot is the language of the unheard.

What is it that America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of the Negro poor has worsened over the last 10 or 12 years. It's failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. It has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice, equality, and humanity.

Finally, an accurate use for the term "shitlib"

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 32 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Shitlibs and policing activities they'll never engage in, name a more iconic duo.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Shitlibs and guilt tripping voters while being smug and wondering why no one likes them.

Peaceful protest or "sitting it out" is when you have hope to last longer than the current crisis.

The current crisis, at least in the US, is not going to vanish that quickly. The real crisis is the dropping wages, and that's not gonna revert much. Socialism or barbarism!

I had this exact convo with a friend recently. Peaceful protest can work against a government with a ~~conscious~~ conscience. The US gov’t has consistently shown to not have a ~~conscious~~ conscience. My local organizers don’t really seem to get this, which just means they, and many of the general citizens they direct, will be underprepared for the conflict that will almost inevitably arise.

Feel like they're ignoring the fact that these massive protests are a sign of contention and the point is to not devolve into complete violence. We do need to make it harder for him to convince others that we are not unruly people, but people protesting actual grievances.

[–] fodor@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 month ago

Well yeah. It's possible for peaceful protests to work, but let's look at history. In reality, the pigs are going to get violent regardless of what anyone does, the national guard will be called out and they're going to use tear gas because their bosses want them to, and despite the fear of injury or death, large groups of people will keep working to make things better.

This is guaranteed to occur. For good or bad, whatever, it will happen. So let's stop worrying about certain outcomes and move our focus to the uncertain things.
