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)

Whenever someone tells me that "Mosquitos are evil for killing kids in Africa" I always have to remind them that these same mosquitos exist all over the world, what the rest of the world doesn't have is the extreme level of European parasitism that fucked the continent so hard, a tiny bug can kill so many people.
You are right about the economic side, but there are different species of parasitic insects in different places and what diseases they are capable of carrying varies, which accounts for some of how we have seen the damage of European parasitism manifest.
europe used to have malaria, but it was eradicated. i wonder why similar efforts have not been as successful in africa.. hmm
tbh that fly in the pic dooby lookin pretty white
