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.

I have yet to meet an American who visited china who did not come back screaming praises for that country. When you mention their visits, they always grin even if it was a grueling work trip.

There was ine ledditor that I spent too long talking to who claimed to like China until he traveled there and saw guards with rifles at Tiananmen Square, which he interpreted as exerting a psychic pressure to not even think about the June 4th Incident. No, as far as I can remember from his harrowing account, no one actually said anything.

Lmao I remember growing up post 9/11 and seeing armed guards with MP5s at hockey games.

Shit, i can go to Seattle right now and see cops with body armor and assault rifles patrolling the train station like it's Fallujah. Even the motorcylce cops around here have AR15s sticking out the back like they're judge dredd

They're all actors, every last one of them, acting their entire lives in case a Westerner catches a glimpse of them. Nobody actually works in China it's just actors. It's a wonder they're the second largest global economy /s
