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

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
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.

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.

Yeah even after Luigi shooting a CEO nothing happened. Even if a revolution happened these people would just go to their luxury underground bunkers to wait it out.
There have been several more CEOs shot and stabbed since then but the media was instructed to not push those stories.
Please enumerate.
I mean, looking a bunch of billionaires in a luxury basement for the rest of their lives would be something resembling a consequence. I would actually be fine with that.
Would I prefer they get the Jack Ma or Hui Ka Yan treatment? Absolutely. The Louis XVI treatment? For a few of them, definitely.
But it's so far away from "Renting out Venice to celebrate my marriage to my favorite concubine" that I'd take it
For them the near-term danger is coming from inside the house so to speak. The political monster they created that is now seizing absolute power will turn on them, first the disfavored that will be prosecuted and have their assets seized. Before long seizing assets will be the end initself.
The judiciary will be owned by the accusers, and the parasitical parts of our economy will be in league with the government.
Our productive companies will fall. Which will further damage the economy, further encouraging taking of assets from others.
When Society fully collapses Security Services will continue on in this vein and in the highway robbery.
How is it turning on them? They get tax cuts and less business regulations. Who has had his assets seized?
We are still at consolidating power phase with a propped up economy, after the economy falters when they are fixed in power that will start in earnest.
If they keep bringing the military into domestic affairs they will subbordinate civilian leadership at some point as well.
