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

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

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

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

TranscriptA crudely drawn ms-paint-style comic. The first panel depicts a person with an ancap (anarcho capitalist) mask. The mask is black and yellow, the colors are divided diagonally. The person is saying "statist bootlickers fuck off!" to a boot. In the next panel, they are staring at the boot draw an amazon logo on it with a marker. The last panel shows the person deepthroathing the boot, saying "At least it's not the gubermint [government".

“Whenever anarcho-capitalism is mentioned to me in conversation, it’s usually followed by repealing the age of consent.”

Capitalist libertarians still want a (mimimal) state, so they can call the cops to protect them and their underage wife

Well, harem. Their underage harem.

They want only the violence the state has to offer.

Ancaps are corporate feudalists who want a cool sounding name.

As if corporate feudalism wasn't cool enough. Sounds cyberpunk as hell

Even old fashioned anarcho-monarchists are closer to anarchists than ephebophiles. (Please use the correct name for their ideologies)

Well I guess we now know what kind of idiot starts their manifesto with abandoning any form of morality

Nothing is wrong with capitalism; but the current crony capitalism doesn't provide enough opportunities to be the boot

Sweet mother of fuck just blatantly desiring/justifying slavery is..wild.

“I dream of a world where I can enslave the poors with no consequence” essentially.

Oh, so you would prefer abolitionists running arouns being mean to you?

If they reply, I imagine it will be some hog wash about the NAP (non-aggression principle). Which in short is a honor code they expect everyone to abide (currently not possible because government). It is a rather odd claim for the ancaps I think. They are saying something about solidarity and no one will want to work with an abuser/slaver. They will also deny that Ayn Rand's objectivism is distinct from their ideas, but interrogating them shows its not. So they have an appeal to solidarity, but the selling points of their ideology are selfish motivations. Historically that means there will be plenty who find their selfish interests are to side with an abuser/slaver/colonizer. Id compare them to a religious fundamentalist that just found some contradictions in the bible and is working on the apologetic.

Of course you have no right, he makes a big point about talking about the difference between slavery of the protected (which would be met with aggressive response from the private security they pay for) and slavery of the unprotected (aka poor, and thus are not paying private security to not be enslaved) which is apparently acceptable.

@boonhet@sopuli.xy

On Reperations

I like to call them the pro oligarch/feudalists that they are. They of course say all kinds of "free market" is not feudalism or pro oligarchy, but then they do all these backflips to defend stolen wealth.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago

Ah, but is he currently paying for said expensive private security?

I fuckkng despise how ancaps have completely coopted the term "libertarian" in the US, to the point where they are synonymous to most.
