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.

Mr Beso Inger at the research institute for peace and prosperity found that "if you define war as 'when one country kills over 100,000,000 of another country's people with stone axes' the US has never been at war and is statistically the most peaceful country ever to have existed." He added: "It really makes you think."

Cue the Engels quote about the gentlemen seeking to change the names of things

For people who inhabit the world of the ideal, it comes as natural as breathing. If they think it, it must be true, and there's nothing more to be said. It's how they can define war by an arbitrary number of deaths, how they can think away unemployment or unnecessary Covid deaths, or how they think unemployment into China by including children and students. The worst thing is that liberals under the illusion that they 'think critically' will gobble it all up like a shark to a bucket of chum.
