This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel

- Unless it's an obvious shitpost, include relevant sources
- For articles behind paywalls, try to include the text in the post
- Mark all posts containing NSFW images as NSFW (including things like Nazi imagery)

A Russian official today condemned the fact that Russians were prohibited from attending this year, noting that those attending instead were the grandchildren of the Wermacht and SS.
It reminded me of an interesting article (albeit I ought to state that the article has anti-Soviet ridiculousness in it) I read not too long ago in The New Yorker. (https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-columnists/the-historians-under-attack-for-exploring-polands-role-in-the-holocaust) which seems to indicate Poland’s and the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum have completely downplayed and attempted to suppress, through legal means, any historical discussion of any Polish individuals who contributed to and helped the Nazis.
The museum, following this article put our statements attacking the author and claiming any discussion of Polish collaborationism during the Holocaust downplayed German responsibility. So, in the end, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum might not be exactly what one would hope (or even, to some extent, expect) when it comes to historical memory of the Holocaust.
