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.

Here's the creator of the term "totalitarianism" , hannah arendt, on "the dark races":

@rodericday also has some really good threads about her.

I absolutely hate Arendt, but for some reason, I have to read the Origins of Totalitarianism next quarter for college. Last quarter we read The Human Condition, and while I found some of her ideas interesting, especially her interpretation of common sense, most of them boil down to pretentious regurgitations of Marx, Engels, and other notable philosophers. Liberals can't give Marx enough credit, so they need charlatans like Arendt to contort these "trendy" anti-capitalist beliefs into their acceptable, less radical view of the world. It's also so frustrating how these academics will accept racist, pro-colonialist philosophers just to spite Marx. Unless you're hardcore into philosophy, I don't reccomend reading anything from Arendt. It's better to read her inspirations.

…wow.

Well, coming from the same asshole who was famous for both‐sidesing fascism and communism, I guess that I shouldn’t act too surprised that she would both‐sides European colonialism and African indigenity either.
