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]

  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  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.

Canada has always been refuge / safe haven for America's downtrodden, starting with African victims of their transatlantic slave trade.

The Fugitive Slave Acts, passed by Congress in 1793 and 1850, mandated the capture and return of escaped enslaved people to their owners, even in free states. The 1850 law was particularly harsh, denying accused fugitives the right to testify or have jury trials. Federal marshals faced $1,000 fines for non-enforcement, while anyone helping escapees faced six months imprisonment and fines. The law prompted fierce Northern opposition and drove approximately 15,000 free Blacks to flee to Canada.

Bless! I've been looking at relocating to Toronto since I live nearby. It's intimidating to sell my home and quit my job to move to a new country, so I'm dragging my feet to see how bad things really get here.

Drag them too long and you may find your feet shackled. Plus you could potentially move back later on, depending on how things shake out. Stay safe!

Valid. The cost of living there would barely afford me a life, though. I have no safety net. So do I dive into the very real possibility of homelessness willingly, or do I hope that the US can't realistically put 1.3 million trans Americans into camps?
