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.

The Nazis even thought the U.S.'s Jim Crow laws were too intense.

Can you detail further what you mean? My understanding is similar to this article. They didn't think that the Jim crow laws went far enough, so they ultimately based their treatment of Jews more around the US treatment of natives (eventually also mirroring the US with an extermination attempt)

They weren't nearly as strict as the US on racial purity though, which might be what you're referring to? In the US, one drop of black blood would qualify you as legally black. In Germany you needed three Jewish grandparents to be classified as a jew. That's significantly more lenient than the US.

I could, but you already did it for me. Even the Nazis thought the length the US went to classify "blood purity" was irrational.

Cool, just making sure! Thanks for checking back in.
