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.

I think you're making GPs point

No, I'm expounding on mine in order to illustrate that his is too limited.

the people propping up the system" aren't just CEOs

I KNOW. Hence the farmers and industry associations in my tortured mixed metaphor.

This is proven by the fact that a CEO trying to act in a better way is removed

Which is a unicorn that doesn't excuse the behavior of the horses.

. It all comes down to Dodge Vs Ford Motor Co..

Nope. There you go artificially shrinking the issue again. Shareholder power IS a significant part of the problem, of course, but it's not the entire problem.

The people in power are shareholders and they are the hedge funds of wall street.

Those are other parts of the whole system we need to get rid of, yes. Still doesn't mean that abusive ~~horses~~ CEOs are powerless or that it isn't beneficial to get rid of them.
