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.

If someone is interested on learning how DOTP(or worker's democracy) operate in Belarus, then this article will help:
The Belarusian People’s Congress has become a special form of grassroots democracy. It is a democratic institution that allows Belarus citizens to more broadly exercise their right to take part in national affairs – not only via elections of various levels and referendums, the operation of the parliament and municipal councils of deputies, through communication with people’s deputies.
The nationwide forum gathered delegates from every region of the country: representatives of all the branches of power, all spheres of the production sector, the private sector, science and education sectors, healthcare and culture, university students and veterans. These respected people – professionals, leaders, who are ready to speak up on topical affairs and make their own proposals – were nominated and elected in labor collectives and during public meetings.
It has its similarities to China's NPC(National People's Congress) -> http://en.npc.gov.cn.cdurl.cn/2021-12/04/c_687613.htm
As context for the above, the dominant class of a society, I.e. the dictatorship, will always be the class who controls the state and uses it to further their class interests. In the capitalist west, capitalists clearly control the state. If the workers are in power and have the means to control the state, then it is socialism.
