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.

When I was growing up, I recall reading these magazines, and it made me really excited about technological progress and the future. I found these sorts of ambitious ideas and grand scale engineering to be really inspirational.

This is the kind of vision that's sorely lacking under western capitalism where the best and brightest minds end up wasting their talents working on utterly useless, and often harmful, garbage like Facebook or Twitter.

Instead of people figuring out how to advance humanity and solve big problems in the world, they're working on figuring out how to shove as many ads as possible in people's faces.

There's a stark contrast between the west and China in this regard. China has a vision for the future and it implements large scale engineering projects today. It's pretty much the only place where real meaningful technological advancement is happening at scale today. This is the power of central planning and communism!

I mean, how would you then portray children in movies? In my eyes child actors would be understandable, however not something that should accepted in the current state of things.

Communism will give children better working conditions, as well as a great reduction in work hours. Child acting and other stuff like that should strictly be a hobby. I think we agree on this since you said it should not be accepted presently. By hobby I'm just talking about the hours they put in not money. They should get paid obviously.
