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.

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.

It's been two weeks. People are still reeling and major protests take time to organize.
The 50501 movement alone has organized more protests than there was in the first two weeks of his first infestation. No matter what it "feels like" to you.
I was really just looking for people's insights/perspectives on things here, cause I feel like it's important.
But to demonstrate what I mean, the 2017 women's march happened the day after Trumps first inauguration and had 470,000 people in DC alone, with somewhere between 3-5million participating across the country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Women%27s_March
Idk why people are being so toxic to you but another thing to consider is the news cycle has been completely overtaken by Trump since
I think people are just frustrated, I know I am.
You're certainly right about Tump just owning the news cycle. Whether it's all been literally taken over, they're too afraid to fight back, or whatever it's clear that most news agencies aren't willing to call a spade a spade (or a nazi salute a nazi salute).
