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.

Why are warplanes taking off from a civilian airport?

National Guard forces, refueling, transit.

Also that’s a pretty normal thing across the globe. It’s pretty expensive and wasteful to maintain dedicated military airbases in places you don’t need them, and there is absolutely no reason to not land jets at a civilian airport to refuel or something similar.
