Haven't heard of anything by that name. From a cursory search, I only found "focoism", which doesn't seem to have been created by Fidel. AFAICT, Fidel didn't write all that much, so "Castroism" would just be Marxism-Leninism applied to Cuba's material conditions, rather than a different framework

Right, it uses the term as synonymous with "focoism", which was created (or at least formalized) by Régis Debray, not Fidel or Che (albeit inspired by the latter). I don't know enough about it to make any meaningful comment 😑

Equality of sex and races is a major tenet of Castroism, hailed by Nelson Mandela as a hero when Mandela made his first trip to a foreign nation as South African president, he thanked and praised Castro for helping to end apartheid. He had done so by sending to Cuban army [sic] to Angola to defeat the apartheid South African government who attempted a takeover after the Angolan civil war. He gave special permission to a Kosher butcher to remain open to this day in order to support the Jewish Cuban community and distributes passover food to the small Jewish minority.

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.
