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.

idk the dollar still goes a lot farther abroad than in the us. i thought COL was more up to high rent prices than the decline of dollar hegemony

The dollar index (value of usd compared to a bunch of other currencies) dropped 10% last year. So regardless of inflation/rising prices in usa you will get 10% less overseas per usd than you would have in 2024. Most of the worlds currencies are losing their value as well because of dependence on the american dollar and economy. The cost of living crisis is happening in most countries around the world.
