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.

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.

As an aside, I've seen this happen elsewhere as well. Classic play for wage theft. When I was working as a bartender in London to make ends meet, I had a coworker from Mexico on an expired visa. Great guy and the most hardworking. Well won't you guess it, guy got picked up by immigration authority on payday.
Did they gain more money than you, or were the fruits of your labor divided equally to your yields?
If not the latter, you were exploited to work for the owners of the business. There's senior syndicalism, and there's bourgeoisie exploiters.
I’ll await until you finish reading David Graeber’s Bullshit Jobs: A Theory 2018. Debt: The First 5,000 Years is just as good.
I don't know for sure, but I'm paid pretty high here comparatively for the company (I get paid less than I should for the actual experience and position, but it's a smaller company that pays everyone less), and I know I got paid more than some of my previous managers here while I was under them. I was also paid like 20k more than someone who started 2 years before me.
It's more the previous owners negotiated directly with each hire and I knew what I was worth more than they did.
I'm glad you realized you were all exploited by the bourgeoisie. Now please do the homework I listed you, so you realize how much further everyone is being exploited through the theft that is money.
