And they’ve been taught that history is over, there’s no alternative, which means other places must be exactly like the US. It’s inconceivable that other places could be run differently even while those places are thought of as other.

It’s even worse, they automatically assume those places must be worse. So if US politicians are being unaccountable corrupted bureocrats, the others must be complete tyrants, if US police is murdering and brutalizing people left and right in the open without any repercussion, the others must be worse than gestapo, and so on and on.

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)
