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.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
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)

When in fictional Warhammer 40000, thousand people are killed daily to keep travel in entire galaxy safer, it is something monstrous.
When in real USA during the pandemic around thousand people died daily to keep the top bourgeoisie profits high, it is freedom.
Tbh, the satire in 40K (and satire in general) seems harder to distinguish from life in the West the longer I live.
3,000 a day at the peak, literally 9/11 every day for the Denny's to stay open.
100+ die every day (on average) in US traffic accidents (42,795 for 2022)
The population of the imperium is in the hundreds or thousands of trillions or even way more than that. Sacrificing 3000 people a day to make it so that demons don't attack every single spaceship, and to ensure the reliability of ftl travel, is considered grimdark.
In a country of 330 million 3000 people a day died during covid to protect 6 months of corporate profits. But its ok because those people died for the freedom to drive to mcdonalds
I've actually seen people defend the deaths because it was mostly the homeless and the unemployed; a lot of people are just utter trash, but now they can broadcast it through social media.
