Flippanarchy
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.

I'm an anarchist. You shouldn't be surprised to find out I'm strongly opposed to electoralism.
You seem not to have read the last bit of my comment where I mentioned that unions like any other kind of network can become corrupt and manipulated. Within a capitalist system it goes without saying that capitalists will manipulate everything they can.
I agree that fruits of production must exist to be redistributed, but would argue that in most contexts the amount of labor being stolen by management and shareholders is so vast that there will rarely ever be a context where a union must push a company to increase production. I'm sure it happens but it's definitely not the norm.
Unions are not necessarily tied to companies. They often aren't.
And this comment was strictly about unions so I didn't mention other forms of redistribution. My comment prior to the one you're responding to does mention those things.
