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.

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.

So, do you think the funeral will be private?
Or can we all join carrying balloons and air horns?
I hope there's a little privacy at least, I've got a shy bladder.
It just needs hundreds of silent mourners standing nearby with placards "Thoughts and Prayers" on one side and ads for discount AR15's on the other side
I’m gonna need a prior authorization before any Thoughts or Prayers can be dispensed.
I’ve always said eat the rich but both can work
You have to stop and appreciate the little things.
I swear he looks so much like Grant Gustin.
He is Grant Gustin. This was a behind the scenes shot. There's a character's name on that gravestone in the original picture.
I'm not sure if I'm getting whooshed.
Genuinely not a whoosh. I had no idea this shot existed so it didn't occur it was actually him.
Was gonna down vote before reading the self reflection.. yeah.. it's gotta be /s That's a popular one

Other billionaires who have died recently
Sheldon Adelson - casino tycoon ($29b)
B. Wayne Hugues - founder of Public Storage ($3.3b)
Eli Broad - home building and insurance ($7b)
Yay! More victories for the downtrodden masses! But these dudes died of natural causes - no hooded assassins with silencers, no visceral thrill of imagining being the killer striking an avenging blow of justice for the masses - not that anyone's doing that, we're more enlightened, right?
It's not why everyone is happy about this one.
You can celebrate a little adventurism, as a treat
One day, as I was swimming in the community pool across the street – a critical part of my pain management strategy – I was struck with a thought: "Why don't these people murder health insurance executives?" Not that I wanted them to. I don't want anyone to kill anyone. But why do American men who murder their wives and the people who cut them off in traffic and random classrooms full of children leave the health insurance industry alone? This is an industry that is practically designed to fill the people who interact with it with uncontrollable rage. I mean, if you're watching your wife or your kid die before your eyes because some millionaire CEO decided to aim for a $10 billion stock buyback this year instead of his customary $9 billion target, wouldn't you feel that kind of murderous rage?
