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)

MODERATORS
They do realize if WW3 does happen they will be drafted, right? Like, they’re frothing at the mouth for it but I don’t think they know they themselves will be fed into the war machine.
It's always everyone else that will be affected. Never them. This is what individualism has done to them. They have no concept of being part of society. They are separated from it and the only way to get through to them that they are all part of the same society is to bash them in the head with it.
It’s just so hard to empathize with such a narrow point of view. These people are too old to lack such critical awareness that other human beings roam this earth with full lives and dreams. I just don’t get it. I don’t think I will ever understand redditors…
As long as they can continue to live relatively cushy lives, they'll keep having this "fuck you, got mine" attitude while espousing their so called virtues
usians have this vision of a war that it is like going safari with the boys, going to some "shithole country" to shot some , crack open a cold one and have a bbq + manifest destiny that they are god's unmatched army and they win easily and doesn't cross their minds that war can happen in the home land, always on the attack.
You’d think they’d have figured out they’re not invincible after getting one paper cut, but I guess not.
Come tell us how you slew them old Arabs two by two...
It's like being a monarchist who works in retail. They think they'll be king when their revolution happens, completely oblivious to their predetermined role as serf.
This kind of explains my step dad’s mentality with his whole anti-union shtick.
In the early days of WWI soldiers were leaving for the front, cheering from festively decorated railway cars. They would go and win glory and prove their manhood at the battlefield and they would all be home by Christmas.
We are not a single bit smarter today.
I keep thinking things will be different. But after so many wars, truly nothing has changed. They’ll only begin to regret pushing for WW3 once they’re drafted, and even then I doubt it’ll really do much to sway their opinion. They probably won’t change until they see their buddies blown to bits in front of their eyes.
