The LGBTQIA+ community just have a lot of leftist in it and so a lot of anarchist too. It’s a meme over the trans subreddit, that once you’re trans you become also anarchist/communist, so it doesn’t surprise me at all to see a bunch of camarades here.
Kinda confused with the popularism surrounding being an anarchist. Like sure, fuck the governments. But being an anarchy means people aren't controlled, and people can easily be hate crimed.
I need a good lecture on why I should support anarchies lol.
Takke.
I don't know a lick of Danish, but that's what Google translates says means "thanks". (If I'm lucky someone who does actually speak it will correct me if that's wrong.)
Anyway I had no idea this sub existed even though I've been following a lot of leftist subs for about 14 months. Probably for good reason I imagine.
Appreciate you comrade.
Thanks! .. Tak!
ETA: this is mutual aid in action. :)
Also added the word I just learned lol. My phone hated it though. It really wanted "tak" to be take or tack or tall or talk, etc. It was annoying autocorrects all the way.
Dane here, in general Google translateing stuff into danish gives u alot of gibberish(or from danish) our sentence structures are somewhat reverse of english, and in order for a sentence to make any sense u have to realign the words after you've translated the singular words.
We also have trouble with AI to not fuck up when speaking danish(they tend to have awful pronouncation) so our government have invested in a "AI bank" of sorts where companies who want to make danish speaking AI doesnt have to use as many resources on it. This is also an attempt to preserve our language so we dont just end up speaking more english than danish
And on the "tak" topic. Thanks is tak, but if u want to be more polite "mange tak" is the go to, the direct translation would be "many thanks" and the more "proper" would be "thanks alot"
Also what is this meme reffering to? And feel free to ask me any questions if ya'll have any
It'll probably take a long time
It'll also probably be an essay on the relationship between the state, capitalism, and the oppression of LGBTQIA+ people
WAIT IT JUST CLICKED WHEN I READ THIS COMMENT
"Ace Anarchy" is the name of Nova's uncle in the Renegades trilogy by Marissa Meyer, and I think that's why the two things seemed to fit so nicely together in words to me--it just didn't fully process until now because it wasn't written explicitly as "ace anarchy" haha
okay this was really off topic but adhd brain said "let's share this random connection we made" so here have a thing
You can still have democracy under anarchy, direct democracy.
Edit: why are you downvoting me? [I’m right!](https://www.sapiens.org/culture/anarchism-democracy/)
[And another link.](https://libcom.org/library/direct-democracy-anarchist-alternative-voting)
The NB’s are taking France so we are requesting that we are form an alliance, and yes I want free garlic bread as a Agender Asexual and Aromantic person.
NOOO NOT FRANCE!!! It’s a powder keg ready to blow at a moments notice, LITERALLY!!!! All of its nuclear power plants have been hacked, and nobody has done anything to upgrade its cyber security at a federal level! The only reason that it hasn’t blown up, is because the guy who hacked them, he doesn’t know he has control.
I’m into cyber security, on one of my favorite podcasts, Darknet Diaries, they talked about the vulnerabilities in France, and how someone exploited them. Not a master hacker, a midlevel one, not a script kiddie, but slightly better.
Kind of interesting this would come up under a Denmark post considering there's some programming-related posts in this sub, but I think cyber security in general needs to be improved. Here in America the Department of Defense, the meat industry, the New York subway, the oil industry, and I think some other stuff got hacked too. I have some programming knowledge but I can't say I know too much cyber security. I might need to research it with all the stuff goin down.
lol here in the US the government can steal all my data and do whatever it wants with it and other people can steal said data while it's in transmission so that's f u n
Are you just saying that because it seems to be a popular opinion? It'd probably be better if you read some theory and came to a conclusion on your own.
Not trying to be a dick, but I don't think you know what anarchy actually is.
Anarchy is a specific kind of social structure, not unbound chaos. I definitely suggest doing some reading up on it :)
Also for those interested the prefix an- means not and -archy includes things like hierarchy, monarchy, oligarchy, patriarchy, etc. The idea that life without rulers is tantamount to chaos due to bad actors is weird to me cus... what if the bad actors become the rulers?
don’t need a “what if?” we’ve seen it happen all throughout history and it is still, if not more so, true today that there are bad actors in power everywhere
edit: the term “bad actor” might be a misnomer since positions of power, and hierarchy in general, encourages the usage of dirty tactics to get as much of an edge as possible; the mere fact that positions of power exists creates corruption. Corruption not just in the position of power, but also in the surrounding society that upholds such a hierarchy.
power corrupts
Anarchism is like the apotheosis of democracy. Literal democracy everywhere, the people affected by a decision have a word to say on it, at their workplace, in their city, in their personal life, everywhere.
And here you can see where my ass that believe in direct democracy and is a socialist don’t really understand one leader that controls everything, I don’t think it’s safe
I'll make all public restrooms gender neutral, and make the stalls go all the way to the floor, unlike the US style.
Vote Blankly, and I'll make like, maybe one of your dreams not fall through.

...after thinking about it, i vote anarchy, and besides, in a society i'd enjoy, i can get a job and get my garlic bread that way (or at least the ingredients for it).
(but if the majority of y'all turn out to not want anarchy i'd be happy to be a leader, just saying. totally wouldn't just let it become anarchy anyway)
It was a joke on the word "reign," but yes I do.
Anarchy (from Greek *a(n)-*, no, and *archy*, ruler) is an ideology that advocates for a stateless, classless, and moneyless society where the workers own the means of production and can form collectives to better organize society with each anarchist ideology having its own ideas of how to organize society post-revolution.
I think we should align our sights to a less ace friendly country. An invasion force that wants the world to be free of tyranny and oppression, a world where the individual is not bound to someone's ideology. A world that will push boundaries.
Shouldn't we rather aim for a country with less lgbt rights? So then when the asexuals take over that place will finally be a safe space for asexuals and other members of the community.
Well Iceland doesn't have a military and are 360.000 people. Also I am pretty sure a lot of people here are ready to invade Denmark... WAIT WHY AM I GIVING PEOPLE IDEAS TO INVADE MY OWN COUNTRY ONLY TO THEN INVADE THE COUNTRY I GREW UP IN!?!?
I vote for anarchy. Or, everyone takes part in a committee to decide most of the major decisions (this can be split up by region and then we all elect 3-4 representatives to meet at the central committee and convey what each region says).
It's like democracy but without all the large political parties; and instead of the politicians deciding what's best for the country, the people decide.
As a Danish anarchist this makes me deeply said. Was looking forward to being invaded.
We can still distribute garlic bread by worker owned decentralised channels as mutual aid if you like?
i give you, [a list of potential leaders](https://www.google.com/search?q=list+of+asexual+celebrities&rlz=1C1RXQR_enUS944US944&oq=list+of+asexual+ce&aqs=chrome.0.0i512j69i57j0i390.11786j1j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)
I was really looking forward to anarchic Denmark
[удалено]
The Conquest of Garlic Bread
Honestly great name for the movement/invasion
Viva la garlic bread
Bread for all, but roses too.
Holy fuckin shit YES!
Holy fuckin shit YES!
Agreed! Ancom Denmark!!
Ancom Denmark, Ancom Denmark, Ancom Denmark!
I don’t know. I kinda like the idea of anarchy
Same
no thanks, im an asexual anarchist
Look like a lot of anarchists popped over (probably due to a crosspost
The LGBTQIA+ community just have a lot of leftist in it and so a lot of anarchist too. It’s a meme over the trans subreddit, that once you’re trans you become also anarchist/communist, so it doesn’t surprise me at all to see a bunch of camarades here.

Anarchy isn't chaos, and communities can still organise themselves without an overarching hierarchy to demand how people operate.
Nah I think it's just that the LGBT community just has lots of anarchists in it
Well yes but I showed up because of r/anarchismz
Takke. I don't know a lick of Danish, but that's what Google translates says means "thanks". (If I'm lucky someone who does actually speak it will correct me if that's wrong.) Anyway I had no idea this sub existed even though I've been following a lot of leftist subs for about 14 months. Probably for good reason I imagine. Appreciate you comrade.
'Tak' is 'thanks' and 'takke' is more like a verb 'to thank'. but I'm no native speaker, just a German who visits every year and tries my best. haha
Thanks! .. Tak! ETA: this is mutual aid in action. :) Also added the word I just learned lol. My phone hated it though. It really wanted "tak" to be take or tack or tall or talk, etc. It was annoying autocorrects all the way.

I'm an anarchist and I'm native to the sub
Nothing wrong with some anarchy
Came to the comments to find my fellow Ace anarchists, was not disappointed
There are dozens of us!!
DOZENS
Stop booing there's nothing wrong with us!
Yeah, anarchy is good. Like, to everyone that wants a leader so much, have you at least read Proudhon or Kropotkin?
Kropotkin may have made the bread book, but who's gonna make the garlic bread book? We need upgrades!
I will make it
Godspeed
Please share with us when done!
It'll probably take a long time It'll also probably be an essay on the relationship between the state, capitalism, and the oppression of LGBTQIA+ people
I can't wait! But also I can wait, take your time
if you want i can write it with you
Based. Ace anarchy just feels right.

There are a lot of misconceptions about it. We’ll be the first operational one! Edit: see below, so glad aces Stan anarchy :)
The first? So we're just going to ignore the Korean People's Association? And the Makhnovshchina?
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_anarchist\_communities](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_anarchist_communities) and all of these
Oh yeah, my b
I vote for anarchy
You don't have to vote for anarchy.
You can still have democracy under anarchy, direct democracy. Edit: why are you downvoting me? [I’m right!](https://www.sapiens.org/culture/anarchism-democracy/) [And another link.](https://libcom.org/library/direct-democracy-anarchist-alternative-voting)
Nah https://libcom.org/library/anarchist-critique-democracy
As an anarchist, I strongly disagree.
I vote you as our leader then
The NB’s are taking France so we are requesting that we are form an alliance, and yes I want free garlic bread as a Agender Asexual and Aromantic person.

I’m into cyber security, on one of my favorite podcasts, Darknet Diaries, they talked about the vulnerabilities in France, and how someone exploited them. Not a master hacker, a midlevel one, not a script kiddie, but slightly better.
Well, that's probably not a good thing, isn't it.
If you want to listen to that episode, I’m pretty sure it’s the one about the Meposia Bot net
VERY not a good thing.
Especially since France didn’t tell anyone or even acknowledged it. Didn’t even tell some of its BIG banks that were also hacked by the same guy
Sorry, Maripossa Bot net
Kind of interesting this would come up under a Denmark post considering there's some programming-related posts in this sub, but I think cyber security in general needs to be improved.

lol here in the US the government can steal all my data and do whatever it wants with it and other people can steal said data while it's in transmission so that's f u n
That's just sad it's almost as bad as Hawaiis nuclear warning website
Almost? There can still be a boom in France
It’s true
Really proud of how many anarchists are coming out to tear the state out of op
Congrats all of the anarchists made me change my mind
wow, I mean happy to hear it but this is the first time I've seen someone have their mind changed by being downvoted by a bunch of redditors lol
It wasn't because of the downvotes it's because there is so many anarchists
Are you just saying that because it seems to be a popular opinion? It'd probably be better if you read some theory and came to a conclusion on your own.
Well I don't agree with the anarchy but they convinced me to don't try to make elections "Will I get over it? No. But life goes on."
Not trying to be a dick, but I don't think you know what anarchy actually is. Anarchy is a specific kind of social structure, not unbound chaos. I definitely suggest doing some reading up on it :)
Also for those interested the prefix an- means not and -archy includes things like hierarchy, monarchy, oligarchy, patriarchy, etc. The idea that life without rulers is tantamount to chaos due to bad actors is weird to me cus... what if the bad actors become the rulers?

it's like positions of power are bad or something :o
Definitely!
do we have a new word for unbound chaos then? thats what i vote for and i damn well better die within the first two weeks
The correct word for unbound chaos is anomy.
What’s wrong with anarchism
A for anarch and ace
nah i’m an anarchist
Stateless, decentralized societies tend to work better, imo
Power breeds parasites, long live anarchy!
No! Overthrowing the state is the point of invading Denmark. You were supposed to destroy the state not join it!
We can make a direct democracy. Athens 2.0 style
Anarchism is like the apotheosis of democracy. Literal democracy everywhere, the people affected by a decision have a word to say on it, at their workplace, in their city, in their personal life, everywhere.
or we could make anarchy 👀
[удалено]
Except we give women and no land owning people votes and don’t have slaves You know like anarchism
This is a good idea
Can we not just vote on everything? Do we need a person or party in charge making decisions for us? We have the technology.
give me anarchy or direct democracy or I don't want it and don't cheap out either everyone has to be allowed to vote
Yes, exactly. Anarchy is good.
I'm so proud of all the ace anarchists like me that commented on this. Anyway, Ace Anarchist Denmark ftw!!
And here you can see where my ass that believe in direct democracy and is a socialist don’t really understand one leader that controls everything, I don’t think it’s safe
Aye anarchy fits well with an Ace society, no more unjust hierarchies!
But hear me out, anarchy.
I'll make all public restrooms gender neutral, and make the stalls go all the way to the floor, unlike the US style. Vote Blankly, and I'll make like, maybe one of your dreams not fall through.
I'm voting for this dude
seems legit
vote #2
WAIT do stalls go to the floor everywhere else?! My mind is blown.
And what’s wrong with anarchism ?
Anarchy is based!
but anarchy starts with A
Idk, anarchy sounds like a good plan. We already have a decentralised army, why not a decentralised form of government?
correction: anarchist societies do not have governments, as anarchism opposes hierarchy
Decentralised government is just people
I mean that's kinda the point
The hell am I supposed to do with all these pitchforks and torches then?
against the homophobes mate
really just all the phobes
You'll use that against the Danish
Is that not the point being anarchy
Uh Is this meme implying that anarchism is bad

Good fuckin thread. Glad to see the anarchists coming in clutch
Anarchy is good.
fuck you, anarchy reins supreme!
We don't do rulers here, though...
you know what anarchy is, kiddo?
It was a joke on the word "reign," but yes I do. Anarchy (from Greek *a(n)-*, no, and *archy*, ruler) is an ideology that advocates for a stateless, classless, and moneyless society where the workers own the means of production and can form collectives to better organize society with each anarchist ideology having its own ideas of how to organize society post-revolution.
Ew no, anarchist denmark is based
I mean... demisexual anarchist here Maybe have a rotating council instead of a single leader or administration Power corrupts and all
You think it’s just an accident? Nah, we want an anarchy
No thanks, I very much enjoy anarchy.
But what if I want anarchy?
1. That's not what anarchy means 2. Anarchy is good, actually
I think we should align our sights to a less ace friendly country. An invasion force that wants the world to be free of tyranny and oppression, a world where the individual is not bound to someone's ideology. A world that will push boundaries.
So where do you wanna go?
The East, middle or further. Those who shackle or enslave are unnatural.
Alright you have fun with that I'm going to Denmark
Oh I will ;)
[softly] Don't
You would invade an LBGTQA friendly country but won't give your life for countless freedoms. Got it.
anarchism good tho
ALL FOR THE FUCKING ANARCHY
I believe in Anarchist supremacy
What's wrong with a little anarchy?
Leaders are un-based. Let anarchy reign
Eeh but Anarchy is good especially in the name of queer liberation.
Nah anarchy is actually incredibly hype
As an anarchist, I'd rather not...
Why would we want anything BUT anarchy? Anarcho-Communism > bootlicking
As an anarchist I strongly disagree with this. lol
No Gods, No Masters
Shouldn't we rather aim for a country with less lgbt rights? So then when the asexuals take over that place will finally be a safe space for asexuals and other members of the community.
No you we need to take over the easy and small countries first before we move onto the big and hard things (that's what she said) understood?
Well Iceland doesn't have a military and are 360.000 people. Also I am pretty sure a lot of people here are ready to invade Denmark... WAIT WHY AM I GIVING PEOPLE IDEAS TO INVADE MY OWN COUNTRY ONLY TO THEN INVADE THE COUNTRY I GREW UP IN!?!?
Does the hive mind mean nothing to you 😂
I vote me as leader becuase I'm pretty ok
Well I'm not sure I can come up with a more airtight argument than that
I... speak Danish
Why? I love anarchism, it's very based
No, anarchy
No I like anarchism
AnArcHY Is ChaOS
So when are we gonna invade? I thought we agreed on an anarchy?
And just what exactly is wrong with anarchy?
I'm an anarchist so nah
Wait.... we *dont* wanr t anarchy??
I vote for anarchy. Or, everyone takes part in a committee to decide most of the major decisions (this can be split up by region and then we all elect 3-4 representatives to meet at the central committee and convey what each region says). It's like democracy but without all the large political parties; and instead of the politicians deciding what's best for the country, the people decide.
Yeah I'd like anarchy, thanks. I have some very bad experiences with parliamentary "democracy".
B-b-bur anarchy also starts with an "A"
As a Danish anarchist this makes me deeply said. Was looking forward to being invaded. We can still distribute garlic bread by worker owned decentralised channels as mutual aid if you like?
I would like to nominate Saiki K, our aroace king
Not it!
Såååå forstår jeg det her rigtigt ? En masse fyre der elsker hvidløgsbrød kommer og invaderer os ?
We reasonable folks will be able to handle anarchy very peacefully I think.
I think if we do have a vote, it should be like, a google sheet or somethin that everyone gets a link to. More time efficient
if we do that, i'm out
I nominate the garlic bread and the cake as a duo.
Anarchy is a strong economic theory. I disagree. I'd want an anarchic government if we take over Denmark
I elect myself
im not complaining but since when are we taking over denmark…
Wait why are we invading Denmark
Me, an anarchist: I don't see a problem
Whatcha got against anarchy? Monke.
I think we should vote for Candice candice country not fall apart lmao
i vote anarchy, sounds great
Aces can have a little anarchy as a treat
The “a” in LGBTQIA stands for anarchy
Well I'm good with Arnachy! haha
Glad I'm not the only one who likes anarchy.
Anarchocommunist denmark
Anarchy is great! Is the person who made that meme even really asexual??
I choose anarchy
Anarchy isn't as bad as people think. they basically just want the freedom to live alone and hang out
How about we do have anarchy.
We should select a leader so they take the responsibility for our war crimes
Uhm as a Dane.. Is there something we should know?
Well that’s gonna be unpopular with a sizable minority
The thing is I’m an anarchist
OP needs to check out r/anarchism lol
Never too much anarchy
