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)

Unironically, if you understand Marxian economics and the mechanisms behind capitalism, then that will give you an edge when doing capitalist things.
I hold the position that Marxists makes the best capitalists.
I wouldn't call them Marxists if they understand the Marxist critique of capitalism but misuse it
Well, you know what I mean. Kristalina Georgieva, the head of the IMF, and formerly head of the world bank, went to the Karl Marx Higher Institute, for Economics for an MA in political economy and sociology.
yes, I'm just pointing out that there's a huge difference between understanding something and adhering to it (e.g. we more or less understand fascism but we couldn't be more ideologically different)
Marxists are first and foremost people who uphold the necessity of proletarian revolution. His analysis of capitalism is in service of this goal. Marxian economists (who you're describing) remove the critique and ignore the inherent political content because his analysis is that good.
