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)

I do get some encouragement seeing things like this, or the students protesting who didn't back down even when their future careers were threatened.
The fact that they saw through the incredibly biased framing of the question especially.
"said they side with the terrorist group that just earlier this month purposefully targeted and slaughtered innocent civilians.". There's not even the hint of trying to be journalists anymore with them.
To be "fair" this is in the opinion section. Their opinion is bad and wrong though.
The "opinions" section is just so they can backpedal if they need to, if they actually held opinions that the staffers at the paper disagreed with, they wouldn't be allowed to put them there.
Intellectual integrity applies to everyone publishing shit for a general audience, even if journalistic integrity does not
Also, like, the paper is still publishing it
