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.

I mean there are...some who are on the better side [see: Mike Prysner], but yeah. I think it gets most annoying when the concept of not celebrating it doesn't even cross their mind. I don't even know where to start with that mindset

Even before I looked more into the wider alt media network he is a part of, Prysner always made it clear what is at stake is shedding precious American blood on Iraqi soil. This never sat well with me. It is nakedly opportunistic social libertarianism. Did you know he was an interrogator? Not the only former interrogator to become a leftist superstar.

John Kiriakou lied about being present at the torture of Abu Zubaydah in order to frame his "torture-based information is too low-quality for the noble CIA" (missing its many many other uses) narrative. Kiriakou did actually torture people of course. If you line up his service record he worked at places where it happened all the time.

Strange bedfellows? No not really. More on this later.
