About

Arachno-Communism refers to a joke political ideology which is a parody of anarcho-communism. The joke, which is based on the prefixes "arachno" and "anarcho" being anagrams and easily misread, has led to various memes exploring the joke ideology. Memes about Arachno-Capitalism, parodying anarcho-capitalism, have also been made.

Origin

On April 28th, 2007, user of parody encyclopedia website Uncyclopedia Oceanhahn created[1][2] an entry for Arachno-Communism, describing it as "a system of political and economic government where the people are governed freely and fairly by giant spiders." The joke political ideology parodied similarly-spelled anarcho-communism.

Later on the same day, Uncyclopedia[3] user Major Major Major Major uploaded a flag for the joke ideology. The flag, depicting a black spider spinning a web against a red background, used the same red-and-black color scheme as the flag of anarcho-communism (shown below, left). Another image, depicting "The Anarcho-Communist Manifesto," was added[4] on the same day (shown below, right).

Description: SCP-1006 is an organized collective of an unknown species of the genus Araneus. Individual members have achieved sapience through unknown means and have established a rudimentary system of government resembling Marxist communism. The original mass of SCP-1006 was discovered on 4/1/19 by a hiking couple, who alerted park authorities. The Foundation took over after the discovery of written propaganda inside the central web, along with evidence of marked use of extremely simple tools, webs resembling faces of passersby, and simple attempts to block off the area via fallen branches.
