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.

The attitude around hard work here is fucking weird.
Worked outside lawn and garden at Lowe's this year. During the spring it's the shittiest job in the store, even working on an asphalt crew wasn't as hard. Worked my ass off, got the respect of my coworkers when the lazy young guys were reviled. Within 2 months they fired the lazy day guy, gave me his full time slot and sweet schedule. The day I quit the gm was waiting on me to get with him concerning a raise. Same gm started where I was 8-years previous. The assistant managers were clocking $90K and every one of them started at the bottom. My agm had only been there 6-years.
Every shit job has been like that for me. At the very least I got lateral promotions into jobs I'd rather be doing. Also there's what I call the Hawkeye Pierce Theory of Work. Make yourself irreplaceable and you get loads of slack when you fuck up or fuck off.
