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)

Gee, maybe it had something to do with that year being the height of WWII?
Never heard of it, I bet the USSR wasn’t affected by it tho /s
Honestly the fact that under such extreme duress, literally fighting to not be exterminated, that the mortality rate barely got half as bad as it was on a normal jolly day under the Tsar, really speaks volumes.
Yea, when liberals complain about the USSR, I’m saying thank your lucky stars that the deaths in the gulags were what they were. Considering that 40% of the prisoners on average were released in a given year, and that mortality rates were much higher in prisons under the Tsar(admittedly part of that is due to the technology that was available) they should keep their mouths shut.
nah that's not it.
Probably the year when Stalin got his big spoon
