They all have to work to survive. What would you say is the difference exactly?

So does gang members. Whats your point?

[-] smoker@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

Huh? I’m asking you what your point is.

You agree that they all have to work to survive, and are therefore working class.

But, per your previous comment

you're the ones equating loggers and fishermen to sex workers

So clearly, you think there is some categorical difference between loggers and fishermen, and sex workers and gang members. I’m asking you what you think that difference is.

If you insist that I make a point, and if all you’re going to say the difference is is that one category “breaks the law”, then I’d argue that there is another difference: gang members necessarily have to hurt other people, while sex workers, loggers, and fishermen do not. I’d also ask you to consider what conditions lead to the creation of each of these vocations to begin with.

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 !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. 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.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.
