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)

The term has has been discussed adnauseum by academics and historians but www.msn.com content creator says it has no value. Unfortunate for everyone but it’s time to shut up shop
I like the term the Russians use, golden billion, for how clear and to the point it is, but I'm not going to argue that "global south" is incorrect just because of the DPRK.
Unfortunately westoids call it a "conspiracy theory," because it's apparently not clear that the west lives off the blood, sweat, and tears of the global south.

The whole Wikipedia page on it is hilarious. They quote a neofascist economist to "prove" that resource scarcity isn't an issue, and sourcelessly claim that colonialism/imperialism isn't a thing.
The "Heartland" of the United States lacks a heart and isn't really united. Its members have no common historical heritage, no geographic rationale, and no economic congruity. The concept has no value as an analytical tool for explaining coal rolling or sundown towns.
Minor correction: this is not an MSN content since MSN is not a journalistic outlet. This piece was first published in either The Guardian or The Telepgraph. The author is your typical British genocide and warcrime enjoyer.
It's The Telegraph, of course. The Guardian wouldn't post something like this right now, cause they're still trying to present themselves as "progressive" and have themselves published articles about the "global south": https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/sep/20/uk-minister-james-cleverly-says-west-must-learn-to-listen-better-to-global-south https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/apr/09/brazil-g20-lula-west-global-south
The Telegraph is the main Tory rag and they have no problems with shitting on non-whites around the world or publishing articles nakedly in favour of European global domination.
