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:
they are objectively a country they aren't a country with any moral legitimacy but they clearly are a country
No they aren’t.
They lack one of the four primary distinctions that make any country a country. They lack sovereignty over the land they control and occupy. An occupation is not a country, and much of the world recognizes that either Palestine and Israel but hold sovereignty, or Palestine holds sole sovereignty, the Israeli position is to shaky to be definitively stated as such.
For example, the United States also falls under this classification of being a settler colony, but they are still a country in that they satisfy all four requirements to be considered one. No matter how morally unethical the process was to accomplish those 4 main requirements were.
Israel can’t even do that.
they have land, an army, and a governing bureacracy to my mind that makes them a country
To bad your mind has no bearing on what’s true or not 😂
Dang, you used the solipsism card.
If one believes that their mind is all that is real or matters, then they are disconnected from reality.
Also thinking your mind is right is one of the most goofy statements, because that implies everyone else is always wrong lol.
it's a figure of speach
well they are in the UN so I'm not the only one to think they are a country
Also I don't understand why we are calling them not a country it doesn't make any difference to anything call them a bloody cup if you want it doesn't change the reality of the situation that they are a settler colonialist state built on theft and murder
They are in the UN because it aligns with western interests. Being on the UN doesn’t make you a legitimate country, and they can change their mind all the time.
Same as what happened with Taiwan and it no longer being considered a real country by the UN.
Is Taiwan a country? They check your boxes. The UN doesn’t think so though.
