I mean I love your version, but I also don’t see how the OP is a boomer take?
Like I guess it doesn’t explicitly mention the State, but in my view, the State is inherently a bourgeois tool of oppression (i.e. I reject the perspective, held by some statist socialists, that the State can be used as a vehicle by the proletariat to oppress the bourgeoisie; the oppression is unidirectional), and thus opposition to the State can be argued to be a corollary of opposition to capitalism at a bare minimum. (And I emphasize that’s a minimal argument, because in my view, the State enforces most hierarchies, including the ones OP’s meme does not explicitly mention. I.e., I am not a class reductionist; at the same time, there is nothing wrong with mentioning specific hierarchies in memes like this.)
For a meme, yeah, I suppose. I don’t see how that makes it “Boomer”.
wrong demographic
On this website? Nah, this is aimed at the right people. We are mostly leftists and Linux users…people for whom this meme is not a huge amount of reading.
precision is point
I mean…precision is really important. Maybe not so much in a meme format, but it is absolutely critical to be precise when speaking about anarchism and what we stand for. Like there’s a reason that the Bread Book is over 150 pages in print. And admittedly, I’m an extremely pedantic autistic person, so I would personally talk more like OP in person than your meme.

I mentioned the state twice:
I know, that comment was towards the OP, not you.
