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]

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

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.

Anarchism = \ = barberianism
Anarchism = \ = violence
Pacifist-anarchism is what i personally subscribe to.
Absolute do vote, and i am a huge fan of Sanders but also know that voting will not improve things, it will just slow down things getting worse. More time to fix things.
Slow collapse will still continue till we fully transition to a permanent sustainable society. Transition will or will not happen regardless of any single nations temporary elected officials.
The game we are playing is much bigger then a few suits performing geopolitics. Emergent complexity hits you like the great filter
Accelerationist = Supporters of the downfall of society, people who act to quicken a societal collapse
You see that word in there now? Does that clear things up?
It makes me understand your view better but not sure if the term is accurate in this context or such people are common in reality.
I know there are trump voters who argued he will destroy the current system which they hate but such is not specific to anarchism.
Humanity going extinct doesn’t really match the ideals of individual freedom most schools of anarchy are centered around. Unless you consider some form of extreme eco-anarchism where the freedom for nature tops all others.
For somebody who doesn't associate with anarchist accelerationists you're leaving a lot of defensive replies.
Defense of what?
I believe the only reason people don’t realize they are already anarchists (everything is and always has been and will be) is because they don’t know what anarchism is. Instead people associate it with violence and rebellion. Triggers me to elaborate on it because i truly believe awareness of its reality is the answer to sustainable peace.
You may have a tiny point in my bias though. I believe stuff must get worse to get people to build something better and some signals of collapse feel like progress. But to turn that into speed running a total destruction of mature moral intellect and refusing to improve things now is plain ridiculous and somewhat of a strawman.
