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)

What does this even mean? It's different because it's the centre but it's the same anyway?
The claim was that the "psychosis" of the US was because it was capitalist and that everywhere else was therefore the same. I've pointed out that there is nowhere quantitatively similar in a variety of areas. To that you say, well it's because it's the centre.
It seems to be that I'm the only one thinking dialectically here. It we want to think dialectically, we need to know what things like "the centre of the capitalist class" is. If England for example was once it, then why didn't it exhibit the same behaviour?
And therefore...?
Denying the unique "psychosis" (not my word) of the US and equivalising it with every other capitalist states can be seen as defending it.
