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.

Apparently the "2/3 society" was a hotly discussed topic in the late GDR, because liberals went that "if only 2/3 of the society lives well at the expense of getting everything to run well, then it's worth pursuing."

They got what they wanted.

A nationalistic "the state was supposed to take care of me, but I am unhappy. This is the lazy people's fault" was very popular in the 80s - east AND west.
