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)

Communism can only be global and it will eventually. Obviously not in my lifetime, but I expect to see a lot of socialist revolutions and progress. Australia, US, and Klanada are largely fucked, but they will be in chaos after the fall of the empire is made obvious to even the apolitical. I think there’s a prospect of a decent bit of landback in North America considering the size of the oppressed nations and increasing radicalization of the youth. Some parts will probably still be fascist strongholds, but all hope is not lost.
Unless most of the world is socialist we have no hope of combating climate change and other environmental crises. If there’s no hope then we are accepting the [near] extinction of humanity, and why live with that. Things are not settled in the future. We must remember to have “pessimism of the mind, optimism of the will” (Gramci), and that “pessimism is an emotion not a philosophy” (immortal technique).
Precisely.
