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.

Thoughts on this? There is really not much proof that the movement exists other than social media posts, which is not really trustable to gauge these things.

I'm getting lib/petty bourgeois vibes from this. Not that Saudi Arabia doesn't need a revolutionary overthrow of its despotic monarchy, but these methods strongly remind me of astroturfed color revolution movements. Smells too much like "Arab Spring" when online activists literally got NED (aka CIA) training.

Would be cool if it's genuinely grassroots though. Cause fuck the Saudi monarchy.

Saudis in general are weird fucks (not all of them tho).

They only go to my mosque during Eid prayers, and huddle together in their groups.

Their culture is also extremely materialistic, and it's spreading like a cancer across the Arab world, including the diaspora. My own sibling has fallen for the designer bags / new car every other year lifestyle because of what she's seen on social media.

I also talked to a Saudi guy in one of my classes years ago and he told me point blank, no sugar coating, that your last name dictates your caste in their society, showing how close you are to royalty.

I don't blame them really, most of them were just handed this life

Well the real workforce of Saudi Arabia is not handed those rights. I can't feel bad for them
