Now this is the kind of centrism I can get behind

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.

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.

Anybody who tries to tell me that it’s not okay to punch nazis is not a centrist in my books, they are nazi supporters.
they are nazi supporters.
So.. Centrists. lmmfao
Haha fair.
If you decide to call Nazis centrists, or vice-versa, you're just alienating people. I'm constantly amazed at how far people have managed to shove their heads up their own asses on this site.

What are centrists gonna do about it? They're already appeasing nazis as hard as they can.

Good.
Now if only you fuckers could take a hint and actually fuck off, instead of pipping up in every post that actually opposes nazis to whine about how mean leftists are and to defend nazi feelings which you consistently and unflinchingly prioritise over the lives of the marginalised people they're currently rounding up.

Yeah, you nazi supporters really are astoundingly oblivious...
This is why we're losing. If your political movement can't have allies who aren't strictly members, then you'll lose. If you push people away who may disagree but are sympathetic, you'll lose.
This is why the fascists are winning. They are welcoming everyone who they can stomach until the second they don't need to. This is why tankies always get us in the end; because they can pretend for as long as they need to use us, and then discard us without qualm.
Left-libertarians in general and Anarchists in particular need to learn to not let the perfect become the enemy of the good. Because RN everyone else is letting the imperfect become the ally of evil.
This is why we’re losing.
We're losing because you lot keep capitulating.
Not really.
There are those "Pacifist Absolutists" that has this weird worldview that "violence is never okay" 🤨
Think of like Buddhists. I don't think you can say that:
Buddhists = nazis
Yeah, but if you just stand there while someone abuses someone else while you have the power to stop it, but you claim “pacifist absolutist” or you did it because of Buddhism im not going to like you either.
I'm not disagreeing with the fact that, the pacifists who believes in the "violence is never okay" worldview is also partly responsible for when nazis take over the world and they don't help stop it. But I disagree on labeling them the same as "nazis". Because Buddhists aint nazis, they just have a wrong worldview about the acceptable use of force.
What I'm saying is that... in a revolution to overthrow nazis, I think the nazis would deserve to get shot, but I'd say leave the Buddhists alone. I'd try to educate them on why them not helping stop fascism is wrong, but I'm not gonna treat them like an actual nazi and kill them.
Like ya know what I mean?
Yeah I agree with you on that point. But I’m still going to be angry at them.
Can the drone have a large bumper at the front?
Good that you go with the times. FPV drones are cheap, easy to get by, and surprisingly not used much for assasinations.
Liberal here. Pass the kebab
