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 [email protected]

Also remember, things are newsworthy because they're novel. US sees like 2 gun deaths per day and thousands due to insurance company malpractice, but this one death dominates newscycles.

I don’t think self defense could be stretched that far, honestly.

But that’s why jury nullification exists. His actions were legally wrong but morally/situationally not, so you let them walk.

I don't know if it really matters. Earlier this year Palestine Action got released despite having no defence because the judge wouldn't allow them to argue they had to break the law to protect life and property.
