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.

and fascism is YOUR FAULT btw, because you didn't vote hard enough.
Even if you did, because someone else who we see as undesirables we will never lift a finger for occasionally murdee for fun or because theyre getting uppity but broadly half tolerate most of the time because theyre fucking stupid enough to vote for us a lot of the time didn't vote for them this time, because they were holding out for an option that does not endorse their family being murdered with their (and your) tax dollars .

Liberals have no answers for the current political crisis. And instead of caving to that reality and showing some humility, they'll try to rally the troops to "VoTe BlUe nO MaTtEr wHo" as if the Democratic party signifies all good with politics, while Republicans signify all bad.
A lot of these people don't have the political science education or distrust in the current party to be able to see the Democratic party for what it is: controlled opposition.
Why do liberals think Bernie Sanders and AOC are leaders in the party that draw so much attention? It's not because of some focus group. It's because of the anti-rich world view both candidates hold.
Per usual, a Leftist means being right too soon.
VoTe BlUe nO MaTtEr wHo"
We should as a last resort.
The meme has a point. As leftist we haven't done much to primary dems, nor to make a separate party. This leaves us having to pick for the lest bad option.
Its a big unforced error to ignore elections.
As leftist we haven’t done much to primary dems
In fairness, the party opposes primary challengers from the left (and only the left. They didn't protect Cori Bush or Jamaal Bowman like they protected Henry Cuellar) much harder than they have ever opposed fascism.

Leftists: you have two years to get a candidate that doesn't support genocide through the primaries, and if you can't, just vote for the one that supports genocide the least.
Radlibs: so you want Trump to win
primaries
This is missing scare quotes.

Don't you know you cant criticize any politician because they may be the appointed "lesser evil" possibly in several years.

Trump got elected twice because the Democratic party kept nominating corrupt, evil people who were buddies with Dick Cheney.
If all it takes to justify a dictator despot is framing the opposition as being in any way that is corrupt and evil, even if somewhat justified, then the electoral system has already lost. That's Orban's playbook, too. Funny how the people who usually do this don't tend to employ the same clear cut terms for the actual dictator despot.

As a European, I have to say that the libs in this example are right, because the US voting system is completely fucked with the electoral college, winner-takes-all and all that gerrymandering (and soon more).
So they either have to vote dem (however bad their candidate is) and then unfuck it, so they can do a real election afterwards, or violently install a leftist government and proper democracy.
The problem is the Democrats know this and have no intention to unfuck anything at all
Tried it voted Biden, who didn't want to leave power even while he was losing it occasionally. Eventually when he did stop running, it was Kamala who thought it would be better to court right.
Yup. The Democratic party ~~leadership~~ is either so inept that they think a strong economy is a replacement for social welfare at home and abroad or they're actively working to fill the same pockets as the right.
They (dem ~~leadership~~) cave on these shutdowns because they got their PR and they're fine being fascist as the alternative would impact their bank account.
I hope I'm wrong this time, i would be so happy to be wrong, but it seems insane to expect the pattern to change under the same ~~leadership~~.
Edit: changed my mind on ~~wording~~.

The only thing good with Trump is that, now Americans get to experience at least 1% of their of imperialism & suffer.
I am a non-Western person whose country has been tariffed to hell, yes I can say that. In fact look at this one video explaining why American don't fight back.
Also the comments section is proving my point wonderfully.

I could comment on this post, but it's just too sad that they are still getting away with it. Power to the people.
