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.
Rules:
Welcome again to everybody. Make yourself at home. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is the weekly discussion thread.

Class traitors are every bit as helpful, it's just a thing where due to circumstance, it's not as expected that someone well-off will join a revolutionary cause against the furthering of their own position in class.
But also, I don't think having their own house makes them rich. It means they have a bit more to fear losing than some in a societal upheaval, but if they have to work to make a living, they are still working class. It's more the ones who own and rent out multiple properties, who own loads of stock, etc., who I'd expect are unlikely to ever change their ways and support a revolution, because their wealth is directly tied into the capitalist financial system and its exploitation.
Either way, you could be Bill Gates level of wealth background and still become a socialist. Unlikely if you were from a background that wealthy, but it's not impossible.
