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.

ID: 3 panel comic:
A surprised looking person pops in to existence on a floating rock surrounded by fire, next to the devil.
The person asks "wait a second-- why'd I end up in hell??"
The devil, now taking up the entire frame, replies: "because centrism enables fascism"
Looks like the real problem here might be simpletons who believe in a good place and a bad place. They are so busy thinking about silly useless things that they don't bother with where they are at right now. How many people are harmed daily by useless myths? Such as a place called hell which was a garbage dump in ancient israel before they abandoned it or a being who judges you there.

I have to say, growing up very left wing, I find myself taking a left leaning but centrist attitude to a fair few topics as I age.
Honestly, a big part of it is the lack of planning and delusional thought tank of the left. The right is far worse and I certainly don't agree with them, but I disagree with the OP and a lot of the general sentiment in the comments.
The world isn't black and white, you cannot be sensibly left or right for every political topic. You need to assess what's best for everyone. Politics has become like UK football hooliganism, you're either with or against and anyone on the other side apparently needs their heads kicked in.
You need to assess what’s best for everyone.
Here's a news flash: both republicans AND democrats want what's best for capitalists and capitalism.
Capitalism by default, requires the large scale oppression of people to function, and will always, again by default, decay in to fascism.
Pretending as if there is some sort of middle ground between them (the right), and leftists, who oppose both capitalism and the state that upholds it, demonstrates at best a complete misunderstanding of the concepts at hand, or at worst, an unflinching support of capitalism and all its ills, and with it the support for all of the oppression it creates to exist.
If you're not with us then you're against us. I think the bad guys actually coined that phrase.
As a centrist, you have my approval
