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)

This is really interesting. I just thought sharing what is taught in my academic circle would highlight the differing perspectives.
You'll see a lot of disdain on Hexbear for how some academic circles treat politics and economics. Especially economics, since it's a whole discipline essentially based on treating everything as a perfectly spherical frictionless object in a vacuum. No Marxist understanding (which we consider bad because Marxism is an economic theory which has been highly successful at making predictions). Similarly, academics that echo terms like "authoritarian" are approaching politics without even the slightest understanding of their bias, which Gramsci already described to great effect a long time ago.
