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

Rules

  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

Here's the article: https://dallasexpress.com/crime/uncovering-militants-motives-anarchist-propaganda-linked-to-fort-worth-ice-ambush/

A snippet from the article. It says: "During the investigation, officials found numerous guns and suits of body armor. They also found anarchist propaganda – including a flag that read “resist fascism, fight oligarchy” and flyers that said “fight ICE terror with class war” and “free all political prisoners.” " lol, propaganda like "fascism is bad".

TranscriptA fediverse post by Abolisyonista ( @abolisyonista@ni.hil.ist ) saying "Anarchist attacked ICE in Texas and the mainstream media is citing passages from the anarchist library and all the passages are based??? https://dallasexpress.com/crime/uncovering-militants-motives-anarchist-propaganda-linked-to-fort-worth-ice-ambush/ " It has a picture of the "know the work rules" meme/comic, it shows a woman with ginger/orange hair holding a telephone saying "Hello, based department?!" with a concerned look on her face.

Only if propaganda is defined as “condensed soundbytes for getting across political ideas” in which case that’s awesome.

We need more propaganda to reach the masses. Get in their heads that their own interests and wellbeing is more important than billionaires 😄

The term "propaganda" is quite nebulous. Anything with a political message can basically be described as propaganda... and yeah, I don't think trying to promote an idea in a catchy, snappy way is necessarily bad.
