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.

I published a FOSS NES game that opens with the Yuzu logo and "Never give Nintendo money."

Piracy is still a thing. I'm not playing stupid word games. Even open-source games can be pirated, if they're only free as in speech.

Piracy is a real thing, if you praxis property.
I am not physically robbing your FOSS NES game if I make a digital copy I share with comrades.

free as in speech.
I’m not playing stupid word games.

Then what is press to you?

That's why piracy isn't theft, not why piracy isn't... piracy. It's illicit copying as a failure to reward labor. I am personally responsible for nearly every byte in the games I've made. Taking that without permission is not expressing anything besides "yoink."

Then what is press to you?

"Free as in speech" is perpendicular to "free as in beer." Libre versus gratis. This is central to the free software movement. Irfanview is proprietary freeware. Doom II is commercial FOSS.
