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]

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.

And Bernie endorsed Harris, and she lost.
Dick Cheney did too. I don't see you using it as an argument that the party should stop simping for war criminals.
They should. That's not the reason why though.
And? Do you think an endorsement automatically means everyone who would have voted for Bernie would vote for Harris? Like I said, Bernie's popularity over other Democratic candidates was most pronounced in red states. Those votes didn't transfer to Harris, they transfered to Trump, or to no one at all.
Like I said, the wrong lesson was taught.
Why do you insist on absolving the Democrats of responsibility for their own decisions? It's on them to learn the right lessons, and they didn't. It is difficult to get someone to understand something when their salary depends on them not understanding it. Left-populism is the clear solution to their problems but it scares them because it is in direct opposition to their financial interests.
So they will repeat their mistakes.
