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.

Lately I got back into a video game, which did have one upside: I made some friends there.

The downside is it's a live service video game under late stage capitalism and that means it gets shittier with each update, but marketing presents it as an improvement (to be more specific, the updates are kind of like genie wish fulfillment, where like the players ask for a million bucks and they get crushed by a mass of deer). It's an (admittedly fucking tiresome) reminder that there is no real "escape" under capitalism. It is all an interconnected system. Can't just go off and chill for a while in an isolated part.

This is why I basically only play single player and stray towards indie to medium sized titles for the most part. Obviously you don't make as many friends but the games are usually designed to be fun. [Like no really, live service games are designed to never actually be fun. Just to be on the cusp of fun so you keep playing]
