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)

Glad to see some bougie academic reaffirm the fact that our desire to see everyone treated like a human being is an extreme position.
People who said the computer would end up being one of the most useful scientific tools ever invented were (1) right, but (2) also didn't anticipate how whole sectors of western academia would end up just browsing social media, collecting some screenshots, and presenting the whole together with some lazy-ass graph as "research."
Anyone else remember the overwhelming sense of horror and despair when they realized reading their twitter feed had slowly become literally all the research and investigation journalists did anymore?
And now looking back that was so much better than what we're left with these days.
Twittiance (n) the strange feeling of seeing your own shitpost tweet reappearing on your timeline six hours later but as a headline in a tweet from a newspaper.
