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 [email protected]

That's a bit less than half of the people "exterminated" (murdered) in the holocaust according to common estimates. The holocaust also does not include all of the evils committed. It doesn't include civilian slavs dragged out of their home and shot into mass graves, without ever making it to a camp for instance. I understand that there's other things Churchill did, but I think it's hard to do the level of damage hitler did without the belief that the damage was good for its own sake. I think Churchill did some bad stuff of course, but there are differences in magnitude and intent. If Churchill had meant to do the damage hitler had meant to, we'd probably have seen tens of millions of dead Indian people.
