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)

It was always going to end with those losers setting up shop. But hey it's great to see that MLs are making great strides in geopolitics for humanity, and all the bootlickers from reddit can do is troll on lemmy.
They genuinely think flooding lemmy is going to help stop the multipolar world. Think about that for a second - how stupid you have to be and how desperate you have to be to resort to that. So framed in this way, we know that they will go the way of history and that progress marches on, ignoring their tears.
Your comment is a big cope, MLs will never be relevant; parts of the left (even those more radical than you) calls you 'red fascist'. The tears thing is kind of funny since the whole point of this post is to cry about 'liberals' entering your little comfy safe space.
there are more communists in the state of Kerala, India, than there are anarchists in the world. Your whiteness shows.
Who is more radical than MLs? You, who spend your time trolling online? ๐
You make the mistake of thinking that 'communists' all are MLs, an easy mistake to make but if you really try to educate yourself on communism and its history you'll find out it's not true. It's funny how you think being a tankie makes you the the most radical of the left, when you will happily support states with mixed economies, oligarchies and theocracies. Only Stalin was happy making deals with nazis, the people before him, not so much.
You should follow the good example of your username buddy
Hey, do you have any resources that might discuss the 'flavours' of communism? I'm looking for good reading material and this sounds like a specific tangent I'd like to be more knowledgeable on.
I think too many people get caught up on a consumer-identity mode of relating to these things. It's way more useful to have good fundamental understanding. For very early socialism, Engels provides an excellent summary in Socialism: Utopian and Scientific, since the bulk of pre-Marxist philosophers were put by Marx and Engels in the "utopian" category. Text. Audiobook.
While I think Conquest of Bread is probably worth looking at for an economic skeptic of the idea of a classless, moneyless society, generally it seems to me to be the best strategy to prioritize looking at works that were associated with actual projects of socialist states, and the first person to lead such an endeavor that made it to the "actual nation-building" stage was Lenin.
"MLs will never be relevant" is very funny, thanks for the laugh ๐
The hundreds of millions of people lifted out of poverty in China probably disagree with you.
Ahh yes, the people lifted out of poverty by loosening the rules regarding private property, allowing western investment, and moving away from planned economy? Or do you consider the period of the great leap forward as lifting people out of poverty because it lifted their spirit out of their bodies?
The liberal's China: when it succeeds, it's because capitalism. When it fails, it's because communism. Truly a genius way of looking at the world.
If we weren't relevant, you wouldn't have even posted this.
Seethe and cope
ok cracker
Most ironic nickname ever.
