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.

You say this, but the proportion of the population that is vocal about stuff like this is tiny.
My normie cousin pays for an HP subscription and likes that he doesn't have to worry about running out of ink and that he's never got to worry about his kids telling him about homework printing the night before it is due. He was unconvinced about getting a Brother laser printer.
The world is insane because the masses accept the insanity. Some even support it.
Capitalists know how to sweeten the pot, even when it's full of poison
Personally I've been burned by them twice. Once on a printer and once on a laptop. Won't buy anything from them again. I know the sort of person you're talking about though. I know some "techy people" who think the convenience of corporations reaching into your pocket every month is neat and bizarrely don't notice the heads need realigning every few weeks or that their wifi is spottier than Disney's dalmatians combined.
