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.

What exactly is your issue with China? Can you please explain what you’re actually getting at here? Lots of other people have brought forth some pretty decent evidence that life in China isn’t as bad as a western lib thinks, but I am curious about your thoughts and feelings on the matter. What is your issue with China? Why would you not want to live there?

With many redditor types, it's down to their white/moral superiority + saviour complex. Even if they know it might not be true, they will grasp onto the thought that "liberal democracies" are the best system until the end of history. Just the thought of another country with a different system, and not subservient to the enlightened/civilised west is rising to challenge them is a triggering point for them.

For the sexpat types that you see on Youtube making a living with the anti-PRC grift, they're no longer worshipped as "superior people" even if they were to visit again so of course they will harbour hatred against them lol.
