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.

You don't need hierarchies to defend against imperialism

Anarchist projects have all reverted to capitalism much faster than the Soviet Union did.

Not without being conquered by fascists or red fash.

You sure you don't need those hierarchies buddy? You suuuuuuuure?

Yep, I don't want to help bring about a system which will only revert to capitalism on its own.

So you're happy with a system that will revert to capitalism, your quibble is just over whether it's taken apart by internal or external forces. Yeah, real coherent ideology you got there.

I'm not happy with a system that will revert to capitalism at all. I just think the material conditions are not always the same where anarchists won't come ahead against the counter-revolution, and when they do, they won't collapse through their own internal contradictions like ML regimes.

So AES states prove that socialist states always collapse and becomes capitalism, and the collapse of every anarchist state ever to outside of forces doesn't prove that anarchist states are incapable of defending themselves? I have that right? And that makes sense to you?
