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

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.

Not a single one. I guarantee it. This a bunch of tech nerds posting memes. No one here or anywhere else has the balls to do this kind of thing.
You people keep posting these "CEOs be afraid!" shit, and they are laughing because we are going to sit here and take it.
Don't be so sure.
No guarantee this is a copycat, but it is possible
I'm familiar with the story. I'm from that area. I argue that this is dissimilar based on this:
Mahoney had been hired by the company just two weeks prior.
Two weeks of work at locally owned company is not in the same vein. This guy had mental health issues.
Two weeks of work at locally owned company is not in the same vein.
A local CEO is still a CEO. A new employee doesn't rule out a copycat motivation.
This guy had mental health issues.
The same can be said of the copycats of Columbine. People who do these sorts of things can always and easily be said to have mental health issues. That still doesn't rule out copycat motivations, as that's not mutually exclusive.

Agreed. But that's not always an easy thing to determine. I mean, many thought I was mentally ill, or a paid troll from Russia, or whatever, just based on what I say.
So it's a tough call to say someone has mental health issues unless you're an expert in the field.
