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.

All I see is people going half way around the globe to kill children for their own material benefits.

The day that they turn their guns back at their masters will talk.

Did any of these Vietnam veterans Change their tune after the war? Asking out of genuine curiosity

Yes, a good many. This is a puritan follow the rules society. Acting out has mostly still been within certain lines. There's a difference between individualism and independent thinking, the latter is much more dangerous, socially and literally.
