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 like how they phrase it as "We will cut them from US" whereas in reality it is a situation where they are cutting themselves from them, and isolating themselves. Europe is literally wanting not to trade with 2 of the most big countries on Earth, let's see how well that goes.
Europe's leaders have forgotten the lessons learned by French and Russian monarchs. I mean, the virtue-signalling sanctions against Russia were bad enough but at least they could source gas through China or from the US. If they sanction China, there's nowhere else with the production capacity to replace what will be lost. Maybe we're watching a live show of state-Darwinism, where Europe accidentally degrowths itself out of existence and saves the world from climate change.
Europe has already had to buy Russian oil from India, because sanctions kept them from buying it directly. All they're doing is making fools of themselves by following orders from the US and imposing sanctions.
