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.

Period.

If you are pro-capitalism, you are Right Wing.

There is no pro-capitalist Left. That's a polite fiction in the US that no one can afford any longer as the ecosystem is actually collapsing around us."

Definitely something people forget when talking about money in general. Capitalism warps the meaning of "value", money is just the closest we have to display a certain value in a tangible form. In itself, money is merely a tool for universal exchange of goods. A tool that's unfathomably useful no matter the system it exists in.

Imagine we treat money like US citizens treat measurements. "Yeah, I'd like to buy these produce for about the value of 1 middle-sized football field". What.
