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.

You see, we don’t call a positive political event a coup.

"if we like it then it's not a coup!"

lmao

They literally think like this. when the military came on television and asked morales to step down in Bolivia, it was either NYT or wapo that had an article saying "don't call it a coup".

Funny how the definition they use below doesn't even support this claim.

coup a sudden decisive exercise of force in politics and especially the violent overthrow or alteration of an existing government by a small group

There's another hilarious term the human rights concern troll NGOs have called authoritarian democracies. It's applied to any country they don't contest/allege fraud in the election results but nonetheless don't like the ruling party 🤡
