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 !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

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.

Can you build your own house, concrete or otherwise? No? That couldn't possibly be because there is skill involved in building a house even from concrete, could it? ๐ค๐๐๐
No job is "unskilled", no matter how much better it makes you feel about yourself (literally the point - to divide the working class further and give people an easy high horse to jump on to so they can punch down at their peers).
I'm not punching down. Giving unskilled jobs to skilled people is wrong. It takes away their potential for personal growth. And even these unskilled jobs contribute more to society than my academic bullshit job.
Where we disagree is, you say calling a pipeline job unskilled is doing injustice to the person performing the job. I say giving the job to someone is already doing injustice to them.
