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.

That seems disingenuous or ignorant. Ever since WW2 the US has pointed nuclear weapons against these countries and their allies. That was the zeitgeist of the last several decades.

Political boundaries and names might have changed since then, but nuclear weapons didn't become irrelevant. In fact, those nations have only grown up in the shadows of possible nuclear annihilation by the US.

Especially North Korea, born out of the Korean War which involved all the nations in question against the US which was ready to wipe Korea out of existence just to "contain" communism. Why do you think they are so militaristic and intent on having nuclear deterrents? Their alternative is experiencing genocide once again.
