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.

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

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.

Don't tell us what to do, tell us how to do it.
Decentralised protesting, start shit somewhere and run as fast as you can before the police arrives, start shit somewhere else. Repeat until demands are met.
Look at historical examples of peaceful protests.
I'm now dead because police shot me on a college campus.
And so you've become a martyr in the fight against corruption.
No thanks. I already resent the amount of my life I've spent on trying to make the world not suck and not just... living a life.
Then again, I do also resent being born. Not the same as being ok with dying though.
Or other protests.
If you want violent protests it's better to look at revolutions in this case.
Spread positivity at work. Help people with their tasks. Create a sense of community. This has the added benefit of temporarily appeasing your capitalists so they won't notice what's happening.
Once you have a solid foundation and people start spreading the positivity themselves, wait. Wait until it spreads through the entire company, then organize.
Heck yeah
Important to note that in some places it may be more feasible to sow dissent than happiness, but it's also harder to pull off organization that way
