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]

I'm confused. I think of myself as a progressive liberal, and I think that people who threaten a tolerant society should be destroyed. This includes Nazis. Kill on sight. What about this isn't liberalism? Am I a dumbass?

I think they meant "neo-liberal"

They mean โ€œI made a meme about protecting liberties with violence from the safety of my home, but would never actually act on the claimed beliefs which make me feel self superior to others.โ€

Really unless they write a full confession, they're just posers. /s

I don't know where you are but in America a "liberal progressive" is understood by most of the population to be someone pretty far left. In far left places on the Internet (socialist groups, Marxist groups, anarchist groups) a "liberal" is a person that supports capitalism. So lefties hate liberals.

Also using the r-word is NOT cool.

Bad actors and idiots who think things aren't bad or can't get worse. That's who's saying these things. Some people weren't personally effected by Trump and have no empathy for anyone who was, but watch Daily Show to feel good about themselves.

Liberally applying violence to a problem.

If nothing else, you certainly are an ableist, and ableists don't get my time of day.

A quick check of your instance home page says ableism is against your instance rules.
