A community for anarchist. Anarchism is a set of philosophies that promotes a world free of hierarchical systems.

No electioneering, no telling people to or not to vote or who to vote for. Interpretating this rule as forbidding critisism of candidates is certainty an interpretation but in the context of an ANARCHIST space it's a bad interpretation.

No bootlicking & that will include being hyper pedantic about people calling politicians, prosecutors, bureaucrats, etc, cops.

Yes, if you're an obnoxious neo-lib you're going to get banned. If you're not obnoxious & have good faith questions you can stay.

Is it okay to ask questions here with a limited understanding of Anarchism? (lemm.ee)

I don't really have the will or the time to read through long Wikipedia pages or even reading books or similar, which would obviously be a much better, more reliable, more neutral, but also more dry, choice to gain a good understanding of Anarchism.

I have some basic, specific questions that would probably be answered by doing the above, but since I'm not willing to do that (I know, I know), would it be fine for me to ask them in this community?

Depends, did you get permission from the head of Anarchism?

[–] Kattiydid 8 points 2 months ago

Learn however works best for you. I'd say go ahead and ask, if people here have the time, capacity, and desire to answer, they will. So long as you're asking in good faith I don't know why it would be a problem.

Andrewism and Anark on YouTube are also good places to get some info

One think to keep in mind is that there's a wide range of schools of thought in anarchism so answers can vary.
