feel free to remove if it's too low quality. Just wanted to post somewhere nice for a change.

No. We do not need cops. The police will always be a corrupt hand of state violence. As long as there are cops (as in special people who are allowed to use violence) in any form they will ultimately become corrupt. As long as law is enforced it is not equal, and it will never protect "the people". The people are the only ones that can protect "the people". You don't need cops, you need everyone to start policing people around them. That is the only way everyone gets protection.

ACAB! All power to all the people!

Anti-statism. Anarchism is against all hierarchy. Including class.

The political compass is an incredible simple tool and as such it's usage is limited, but I think this might be a useful/interesting way to visualize/relabel it.

TranscriptionA political compass with the Y axis labeled "State Authority" moving up and X axis labeled "Class Authority" moving right.

I should post a follow-up saying "You don't have to listen to people that have no intention of listening to you".

One needs to listen to a neo-nazi to understand them, help them. The problem is that they won't listen to us because being angry is easier.

This is in the context of voting. Voting blue will achieve nothing other than delaying. The point of the meme is to encourage people to not just vote, but to actively engage in politics in order to make things better. Basically the same thing you said.

[-] Val@lemm.ee 17 points 5 months ago

I probably should have put a check on the blue and remove the third option. That would have made it clearer.

Nothing wrong with snoozing. Just don't expect it to fix anything.

Not my fault USA decided to use red for the conservatives, even though red as been the socialists' color since we began.

[-] Val@lemm.ee 15 points 5 months ago

That is a fair point. Although there is a point to be made that "the system" is democracy and overthrowing a government that doesn't represent the population is a part of the system. But I agree that most people probably don't think that way.

If you can think of any improvements feel free to make changes and upload your own version.

Anarchism. But it is meant to signify any kind of leftist ideology. I just chose anarchism.

[-] Val@lemm.ee 18 points 5 months ago

Yeah. I made It in inkscape. Happy you like it.

[-] Val@lemm.ee 29 points 5 months ago

I needed a small and quippy option for the meme, but I agree, in this context that would qualify as a "fix".
