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.
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.

Just so you're aware, you aren't the first or smartest person to think of issues with Anarchism. There are far smarter and well read Anarchists, than anyone here, who think it's still the right idea. No one will agree on every specific, but that's true for everything.
I could argue every system of governance is doomed to fail. Literally none of them are perfect, and none ever will be. That's why there are so many different versions of capitalist democratic republics. Every single time there are issues, and people come up with different solutions to those issues. The real problem comes when you refuse to engage and see any pros or cons of a system. There's always something to learn.
You're more ignorant than any Anarchist if you write it off entirely, just because you have a poor idea of what it means. Hint: big A Anarchism is different than little a anarchism. It doesn't mean a lack of government. It's an attempt to remove hierarchy, where possible, because hierarchies are where most of the issues with society come from.
