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.

Welcome again to everybody. Make yourselves at home. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is the weekly discussion thread.

These things don't happen all at once, or all organically. The conditions make it easier to get through to people on a point like this, but they will still benefit greatly from guiding voices. The media apparatus is practiced at redirecting people's ire in various wrong directions, so part of our task is getting past that to make sure people are not being led astray.
The other thing to keep in perspective is that "the majority" is a lot of people. It would be unreasonable to expect that outcome in any country, while the various state apparatuses and inertia are in place. What is most needed as a foundation is people who can build an alternative. It's not as though western countries are going to pass a threshold of disliking the government and then automatically press the revolution button. Probably what would happen if the majority saw it as fundamentally awful, is the exploiting classes would sell them on the idea of reformists in office and some people would fold on their views if/when they see the system reforming at all.
Point being, popularity/unpopularity only goes so far. Organizing and tactics are what turn potential into substantial change.
