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)

It does have a real "vibes based analysis" ring to it. Its just a rehash of "bread and circuses" which was just moralizing against poor people for trading the "democratic" Roman Republic for food and entertainment from Ceaser. Its judging people for not giving up their own real comfort and security for the chance at a hypothetical better future, an act which has no precedent in history.
For the majority of people, they need to have nothing to lose before they sacrifice everything. That is the standard Risk analysis of the human mind aka. human nature.
"Bread and circuses"
Basically shaming poor people in general who still need social recreation and joy to order to avoid burnout, anhedonia, and major depression just so they can make it to the next day.
