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 agree. I actually didn't know if anyone else was thinking this today. It's not even particularly on tumblr, I've started turning a side-eye towards a lot of sources I have based upon this new rhetoric being wedged into our circle.

Even Ali from Electronic Intifada was ranting about how Russia and China "betrayed" Gaza. Like how would vetoing the deal stop the genocide? and you know that behind closed doors usa was saying "if this gets vetoed we will let israel go back to how it was a coupple months ago."

I completely understand the frustration. But unfortunately a veto wouldn't realistically achieve much other than leave Gaza with no peace plan at all.

I think that the people who criticize China the harshest for not doing enough for Palestine are overestimating China's power and influence in this specific situation, and they are putting an impossibly high standard on China that they are not putting on their own governments, or even on the governments of the Arab countries who are much closer to Palestine and have a much bigger responsibility and obligation to involve themselves than China does. It is happening in their backyard, not in China's, so why aren't they doing more?

Like Egypt has 100 million+ people, their army is stationed right on the border with occupied Palestine. Except for the US, no other country has the ability to launch transcontinental naval campaigns.
