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.

The change of position of some EU members may be related to their interest in plundering the Western Sahara fish^1 and last year's sentence of the EU Court of Justice that ruled that EU-Morocco trade and fisheries agreements cannot be applied in Western Sahara and its natural resources^2.

They declared the 31st of October a national holiday.
Once again our politics are acting according to a "realpolitik" betraying our alleged ideals, while our population is misinformed by our capitalist-owned medias and unspecialized&rushed journalists, otherwise we'd respect the will of the local population.
A referendum was promised since 1991, but Morocco insisted that the moroccan settlers should be allowed to take part in it, since they know that otherwise they'd certainly lose.

We'll support separatism in other countries while refusing to support the local population in Palestine, Crimea, the Donbass, or here. It's not only about double standards, but a refutation of our universal values. We're not about aiming for righteousness/justice/goodness/..( anymore ?), but about whatever serves our interest, logically generating the world we deserve.

Anyway, that's how terrorists are created, if i was a sahrawi(, and didn't desire to be moroccan, united in diversity, which seems to be case for almost all of them), then i'd support Bashir Mustafa Sayed.
But hypocritical westerners will oppose terrorism because "violence is never the answer".
Or it's just one more example of 'our double standards'/'whatever suits our interests'. We don't even have a well-defined public goal(, with intermediary objectives).

Even our journalists don't trust our politicians, and then we complain about the rise of populists, who claim to at least be honest even if they don't appear as competent/knowledgeable.
E.Macron talked about pedagogy in the past, something new 'needed to be'/'could have been' created, but he gave up because nothing is ever simple, yet our distrust will continue to stay low, or even fall further, if nothing is done(, more censorship of foreign(&domestic) opponents can't be the only solution, along with buying newspapers and blocking new candidates from obtaining mayoral endorsements).
I'd personally argue for the solution of direct democracy, even progressively with only 2-3 referendums each year, but there's undoubtedly dozens of solutions, and we seem to continue on the current/old path without changing anything.
