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.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
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.

this is what i most heavily associate with the the blissful neolib period where 'history had ended', in the period of parenti where communist projects had 'failed' (ussr collapse/decline, deng market reforms, quality of life increasing for westerners and their continually posturing at a better life for all their consumer goods + Assorted Good Freedoms) and so the term failed ideology was branded onto all communism and the body of theory of communism seemed as dead as ever. 80s to turn of 21st century(?)
the margie thatcher "capitalism is all we got" quote characterizes the period for me. a hapless throwing up of arms, announcing that communism had died a natural death when we had laced its drinks with polonium
That is the problem with the habit of Liberals to frequently redefine words like dictatorship to suit their political agenda. The Liberals claim that success in a Communist country means that the Communist country is now "Capitalist" even as they oppose the "Capitalism" in that Communist country. Likewise, the Liberals claim that failed Capitalist countries like US in 1930s are "Socialists" even as they seek to implement the policies and ideologies of the failed Capitalist countries. The recent Neo-Liberal practice of Pax Americana is to claim that Capitalism is against government intervention into the market to gain support for "Capitalism" and then redefine Capitalism to mean plutocratic command economy to implement "Capitalism". Anyway, the election of Donald Trump should be destroying the free riders of Pax Americana and allowing the former European colonies to gain real development in human rights and economic prosperity.
