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.

Bizarre works better.

Good bizarre, and a bad bizarre.

Living in the US is… interesting.

Yep. Even just the atmosphere of certain places.

LA, for instance, has the strangest "feel" of any major city I've been in. Did even in the early 2000s when it wasn't quite so run down and a bigger percentage of the population wasn't homeless.

I lived there for two years for work. I took a class at a local university to learn something I needed and there was a military recruiter at a table in the front building entry way every day. I told him my cousin is in the PLA and they probably wouldnt want me. He stopped try to talk to me going forward.
