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.

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.

In anti-capitalist/ anti-establishment shows, they always throw anti-AES jabs. This is from SnowPiercer (lemmygrad.ml)

And also gulag has a common meaning which is beyond the reality of what they actually were, it would be careless to use it this way as a leftist but a reasonable mistake.

I don't think we necessarily need to judge whether the individuals involved made a mistake or not; at least for a project of that scale anyway, I'm not sure how meaningful it is to try to work it out on that level. Ultimately, the end result is the same that a lot of anti-capitalist media gets watered down in one way or another. They (the capitalists) don't want people to believe that better is possible as an actual detailed vision that has been proven to work and has a scientific process behind it. Usually the closest you get in a story is vague allusions to working toward better after busting up the establishment.
