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.

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.

Trump is the ideal leader according to maga, not a lesser evil.
If you're going to troll, at least get the basics right, lib
The choice also has never been binary.
You think maga thinks Trump is more evil than Biden? Who's trolling? Pointing out all the bs in your points is not trolling.
Give me a third choice, that's what we both want. We did not have that, how do you not get that? Not voting helped Trump
No, troll.
The lesser evil is not good, it's the less evil option.
Trump, to maga, is a good option. If there were a hundred candidates, they would pick Trump.
Biden, to no one, is a good option. If there were a hundred equal candidates, no sane person would pick Biden. He is evil. He is a ridiculously racist, ridiculously right wing, ridiculously evil person. He spent his career harming the working class and reducing your rights.
Only in a captured system where you only have two options would anyone ever consider voting for Biden, and only if his opponent is worse. He would be the lesser evil.
Drinking a bottle of gasoline is less bad than drinking a gallon, but it's not good. And it's never your only option no matter how thirsty you are.
I hope writing at a second grade level has cleared up your ignorance and misunderstanding.
To your last point, there's always more than two choices. Always. In every system of governance. You didn't find any other option tasteful, because out of all of them you still wanted evil — you just wanted less.
When did I ever make that claim? Disagreeing with you does not make someone a troll that's a pathetic fallacy grow up. A "good" option is less evil than an evil option how are we even arguing this right now?
Were arguing this point because you're objectively wrong.
The lesser evil is not good, it's evil. Good is not less evil than evil, it's not evil.
It's not a spectrum. Its a different option. Beef is not less poultry than turkey, it is beef.
You're pretending good and evil isn't a spectrum and calling it objective. I think we're done here.
We are, hope you enjoy the camps you voted for. I mean you just voted too put others in those camps, so, I hope you enjoy what you damned others to.
I voted for Dems and seeing what the guys you let into power are doing I am very proud of that vote
You just repeated the claim in this comment.
The good option for magas is Trump, their less evil option is Biden, the evil option would have been a competent third party or a protest or literally anything but voting.
The good option for people that aren't evil was doing anything to stop either Harris or Trump from taking office. Anything at all. Treason is the better option than voting for either destruction of the US people.
The fact you don't understand that nothing in life is binary is how were arguing this right now. Good is not the lesser evil, it is good. The lesser evil is still just evil.
You seem to think there was a third candidate that could have won the election. There were two. Binary means two possible values. Yes this was binary and not voting helped one of the two. Things in life absolutely can be binary have you ever flipped a coin? That's an absolutely absurd claim to make. You're very much living in a different reality
A third candidate was a possible option, yes. And there were plenty. If you vote for people they win. That's not the only option you had or will have in 2026/2028
As far as your second point, a coin flip has endless possibilities, the easiest to demonstrate is it landing in its side, rather than a face.
Exceedingly few things are binary, and those that are are rarely that way naturally and must be forced into being that way.
And that is about as likely to happen as a third candidate is in our current system
Looks like you're realizing how ridiculous your statement was 🤡
Incorrect on all counts. Sucks you'll be in the camps and never help, all so you can jerk off to the false idea that you were right.
Like abstaining and letting the camp makers into power? That thing you're literally advocating for? You cannot be this stupid. Check your home for a gas leak
..the thing I'm advocating for has been the only thing in history to threaten and dethrone fascists.
You can't vote them out, kiddo.
You understand that a viable third candidate would be to be on the ballot right? You understand how absolutely impossible it would be to get a third candidate to win in a write in vote right? You can't believe that. I just refuse to believe you are genuinely stupid enough to believe that. Do you just not understand how ballots work???
... Jill Stein was on the ballot for more than 320 electoral votes, next excuse?
Are you really that pathetic? Do you really just love the taste of fascist cock that much?
You voted for Jill Stein? The Putin puppet that met with Putin and Michael Flynn? That's your candidate to defeat fascism? I take it back. You can be this stupid but damn are you stretching the capabilities of human mind. Be safe🫡
