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.

its fine i've watched 3 episodes, its just that its almost comical how it portrays china as backwards and the west progressive. I cracked laughing in one scene where it turns out there is an rich American in the middle of nowhere in China trying to save some random bird specie in danger of extinction because the evil CCP has been cutting trees. I need to read the novel to see the differences in the adaptations.

I've read the books and am about halfway through the Netflix version. The whole tree chopping saga was exactly as it was described in the books, unfortunately.
