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.
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)

MODERATORS
I think that the problem was that I shared two sources written by Zionists: a report linking Islamomisia with antisemitism, and a report on poverty among U.S. Jews. A Herzlian coauthored the former report and the latter source says in the ‘Who We Are’ section that it blows money on Palestine’s occupation. I didn’t bother to check these things but the moderator seems to think that I deliberately peddled hasbara.

I have a few issues with Acknickulous’s research, but putting that aside it is worth noting that both the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation as well as Acknickulous cite Pew Research as a source, and Pew Research says this:
The ‘glass half empty’ types can easily read this as 47% of U.S. Jews living uncomfortably. I’d say that 47% is statistically significant, but what do I know.
Oh, I see. So if you'd posted based on the Pew Research source instead of the others, I wonder if that would have worked out better. I can sorta understand the reaction on their part if they are used to people posting sus sources, but on the other hand, not everything that awful entities peddle is wholly made up. Some stuff is outright lies and some of it is about taking partially true things and couching it in a particular narrative.
As we see with sources here often. For example, the "at what cost" theme about China that will go something like "[here is something true or partially true about China that you might think is good and here's why it's bad actually]."
