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
- If you post an archived link (excluding archive.org), include the URL of the original article as well
- 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)

I don't think it's really that complicated. You're right - if any other country pulled this stunt, everyone would be up in arms which is one of the reasons they don't do that. But USA? Bases all over the world, chokehold on the world's financial system, most pervasive propaganda apparatus in history. So nobody barks. Everyone bows their heads and pretends not to see they're being robbed blind. Does that sound like a mafia? Because that's what it is. Wiseguys strolling into shops and homes, taking what they want. And if you so much as raise your voice? Your house inexplicably gets burned down. And everyone will tut and say "Well you should've known better, that's the rules of the neighborhood. It is what it is"
The mafia analogy is probably the best I’ve seen to describe the current state of the world. It’s just learned helplessness.
