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.

You can see from the picture that the spinny bits are not spinning. That's probably why they keep crashing. Smh

For years, the only time I hear about Osprey aircraft is when they're going down with all hands.

Maybe the real brave mujahideen were the ospreys we made along the way

Ah yes, the famous Japan island. I'd recommend visiting Japan city and Japan mountain while you're there, the sights are truly breathtaking.

In popular culture, you might have a point on the "Japan mountain" one

Don't even get me started on Place, Japan!

They always find a way to use terms other than “South China Sea” & “East China Sea.”

Suprisingly, at this moment NATOpedia is calling a spade a spade:

A CV-22B Osprey assigned to the US Air Force's 353rd Special Operations Wing crashed into the East China Sea approximately one kilometer (0.6 mile) off Yakushima Island, Japan on 29 November 2023, killing at least one airman.

Maybe that’s seen as to wordy for a title? Blank China Sea is a mouthful in what’s supposed to be a short sentence. I don’t know, I’m being generous.

But saying “Japan Island” instead of “Japanese Island” is comical.
