Template:Character Queer Anarchismball, or AnQueer for short, is a culturally far-left and almost always economically left-wing anarchist ideology who believes in social insurrection, the abolition of the state and capitalism and the anarchist ideal of complete individual freedom as a method of liberation for the LGBT community and the abolition of homophobia, transphobia, heteronormativity, patriarchy and the gender binary.
Personality
AnQueer is often depicted as passionate about fighting against the state and various other "oppressors" and can often be seen vehemently defending LGBT rights, and although they are generally not particularly violent, they view revolutionary violence as justified in the face of oppression. AnQueer usually associates with other left anarchist or LGBT balls due to shared ideological values. They are highly critical of capitalism, which they view as perpetuating a patriarchal system based upon discrimination, on top of the usual left anarchist critiques, and they often view the Liberal Dynasty's alleged support for LGBT rights as more virtue signalling than a genuine belief in favour of complete social equality. Depending on the author, AnQueer can also sometimes be depicted as gender non-conforming.
How to Draw
Queer Anarchismball has two designs: a traditional bisected anarchist flag for most contexts, and the flag of TQILA (The Queer Insurrection and Liberation Army) for more radical, extreme, and revolutionary contexts.
Bisected flag
- Draw a ball
- Draw a black line diagonally across the ball
- Fill the bottom half with the same shade
- Fill the top half with pink/magenta
- Draw the eyes and you're done!
TQILA flag
- Draw a ball
- Fill it with pink
- Draw an anarchist circle-A symbol (Ⓐ) on the top
