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 started this personal project with my partner after a conversation about how we would go about creating an "ideal" history class, and if we wanted to teach history how it actually is and has occurred. Given that fascist states have begun to actively eliminate any and all information they can that opposes them and their ideologies, I don't trust that many books and publications will soon exist as sources are razed and the internet is becoming increasingly dominated by corps (not to mention access to places like Annas Archive being fragile). So I'm trying to compile a list of authors (such as Walter Rodney, and his histories of Guyana) that I can archive, but this project is a big undertaking.

I suppose I'm just looking for advice/suggestions on where to find trustworthy sources of authors and how to filter what to acquire. Maybe there is no shortcut, but I'm hoping I can find a way to make this work a bit faster. Any advice is appreciated.

You'll find archived books on the internet archives website. They typically offer file formats epub, pdf, etc for whatever you need.
