r/COMPLETEANARCHY has gone dark indefinitely in solidarity with 3rd party apps like Apollo, in response to reddit's API changes.
We recommend using reddit alternatives like the anarchist run raddle and a few others
Welcome to /r/COMPLETEANARCHY, the coooooolest refuge of anarchism on reddit!
/r/COMPLETEANARCHY is a low energy circlejerk. This subreddit was designed to be a place where anarchists could circle jerk and make hilarious, relatable memes, and generally not have to deal with the shit that goes on in the rest of reddit (As well as Tankies and Liberalism). This is an anarchist sub. NOT a demsoc, socdem, liberal, communist, or leftist catch-all sub.
However, there are just a few rules. They are very simple, no:
Supporting/simping for politicians/elections.
Use of language or imagery which perpetuates any form of destructive hierarchy such as sexism, ableism, transphobia, homophobia, racism, etc. (This includes brainlet memes and the like).
Being needlessly rude or excessively arguing with other flavors of anarchism (Take it to /r/DebateAnarchism or something please). This also extends to straw-manning, arguing in bad faith, excessive agitation and toxic behavior (e.g. calling people terminally online, ad-hom attacks) toward other anarchists. We're all fellow uniques. This rule extends to liberals and tankies here to argue. This is not a debate sub.
Advocacy, sympathization with, or otherwise holding the viewpoint of any Fascist, Monarchist, Minarchist, or other Authoritarian(such as Leninist) tendency. Frozen peaches on le reddit are for liberals and fascists.
Linking to other subreddits without a no participation URL (np.reddit.com) with the intent of starting a fight or brigading. Calling for brigades is also not allowed. Also, please censor usernames in screenshots.
Authoritarian apologia. All reactionary/authoritarian promotion (Including guillotine jokes.) will not be tolerated. Promoting "Left Unity" is also considered apologia, along with minarchism (Chomsky and Bookchin are minarchists, too).
Fascists. They will be banned.
Debating anarchists. This is a meme sub for anarchists, not liberals and reactionaries. If you come here to argue, you will be muted or banned. Do not bash other legitimate anarchist ideas due to favoritism, or ideological baggage.
Fed/Snitch Jacketing - Don't accuse anyone of being a snitch or cop without strong evidence from an anarchist community or a self-admission by the person. Making a mistake based on bad evidence requires an edited comment and is a warning (and an apology will be appreciated). Violating this without evidence is a ban.
Inciting violence against a particular group of people, or particular person. No calls to violence, reddit's sitewide rules.
Ecofash and Malthusianism. Tacit approval of genocide, population control or ecoterrorism is a no-go.
Gender Critical Feminists or TERFs. Banned on sight.
Liberalism. This includes: Disrespecting and shaming anarchists for not wanting to participate in electoralism (You can vote if you want, but don't proselytize), defense of "left" or "centre-left" policies for the purpose of lesser-evilism, and support for minarchist "democracy" or "the community". Anarchism means free association.
Lazy, low-effort posts that don't contribute to memes or provoke healthy discussion, such as: meta posts from other spaces, 'X said Y about Z', 8values, anarchy-101 content, subreddit bans, subreddit drama, twitter drama, general anti-capitalist milieu that doesn't specifically relate to anarchism ("things are bad"-type posting that doesn't expand on the subject), etc.
NSFW (violence, gore, etc.) news-type content that isn't spoilered and appropriately flaired with a CW tag. Exposing the horrors of state institutional abuse and power is welcome, but not if you're not going to think of users that may have triggers.
Also, notes:
Rule-breakers will be subject to arbitrary punishment decided upon and administered by us fascist, hypocritical mods.
More than anything, just have fun talking with your fellow uniques. It's a hard life in the alienating world of authoritarianism and capitalism and we'd like you all to have a safe place to blow off some steam and have some laughs. We also have a discord. Make sure you have a posting history on anarchist spaces. Sorry lurkers.

"In the clash between capitalist development and the interest of the dominant class, the State takes a position alongside of the latter. Its policy, like that of the bourgeoisie, comes into conflict with social development. It thus loses more and more of its character as a representative of the whole of society and is transformed, at the same rate into a pure class state.
Or, to speak more exactly, these two qualities distinguish themselves more from each other and find themselves in a contradictory relation in the very nature of the State. This contradiction becomes progressively sharper. For on one hand, we have the growth of the functions of a general interest on the part of the State, its intervention in social life, its 'control' over society.
But on the other hand, its class character obliges the State to move the pivot of its activity and its means of coercion more and more into domains which are useful only to the class character of the bourgeoisie and have for society as a whole only a negative importance, as in the case of militarism and tariff and colonial policies.
Moreover, the 'social control' exercised by this State is at the same time penetrated with and dominated by its class character (see how labour legislation is applied in all countries)."
For real,
This election is the election that pushed me into this group. I mean what’s empathy am I right? I’ll get to my point, I’m looking for a group or groups who take action, and walk the walk in Vallejo CA or around there… can anyone help
Sharing a photo from my civil engineering training before the war, a time when we had dreams and aspirations for a better future. Today, with the challenges we face in Gaza, our lives have been deeply impacted, and we're striving to rebuild. Your support and contributions make a huge difference for me and my family as we work to get back on our path and rebuild our future.
Let's not blame workers and marginalized people for any of his. Blame the empire and its ghouls.
the situation in US fckin sucks, but enjoy this
This country is a fucking joke!!
I’m so sick and tired of y’all mfs preaching to the choir, like no shit both sides don’t represent the working class. Y’all gotta stop pointing out the obvious and organize towards a better future for us both.
"Gender is not merely an identity. It is fundamentally a relationship of production producing a system of class. Nor are gender and capitalism alone in being basal. We find basal aspects to neuronormativity, white supremacy, the state, etc.
However, it would be a mistake to interpret these other systems being basal to imply they’re separate. If we do so, we run into the same problems liberal analyses of intersectionality create. When capitalistic production goes on, it relies upon the reproductive labor imposed upon women at home. The value produced in the workplace would be impossible without new generations of workers being reproduced and without support for the workers through reproductive labor of their partners and that they do themselves. In this way, reproductive labor is unpaid labor done for the capitalist class as much as it is an independent system of class to capitalism." - The Gender Accelerationist Manifesto
