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:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel
- If you post an archived link (excluding archive.org), include the URL of the original article as well
- Unless it's an obvious shitpost, include relevant sources
- For articles behind paywalls, try to include the text in the post
- Mark all posts containing NSFW images as NSFW (including things like Nazi imagery)

I don't think anyone sees it as win, but it's extremely funny considering the context of US crippling Japanese economy for decades and their grandiose economic resurrection plans (which are necessarily based on steel production like in all previous cases in history of industrial economy).
Exactly, it's not a "win" for American workers, except perhaps in the limited sense that Japanese management is maybe a bit less likely to run the company into the ground. But it is a symptom of America's terminal decline as an industrial power.
Also, US Steel is a merger of several companies founded by the 19th century "robber baron" industrialists, who are still held up as more-or-less flawed heroes in the US. If it weren't for the effect on workers, one might feel a certain schadenfreude at this turn of events.
