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)

He wrote some academic sounding russophobic and anti-communist drivel so now he gets placed on the NYT bestseller list and has a running gig on cable news.
Academia provides cover for the ruling class, he's but one example.
Unfortunately in my lib years I bought his book On Tyranny and later gifted it to my grandfather, who has been quite a fan ever since. Every time he brings it up now I cringe.
He has an abcs of authoritarianism children's book he coauthored too. Had to do a double take when I saw that one at the library.
ban it ban it ban it
the On Tyranny book seems to be just senseless drivel about "authoritarianism"
That's exactly what it is. Ivy league professor bestselling drivel. It's super short and consist though, so you can always go back to it to affirm your anti-communist anti-authoritarian mantras.
i almost feel like i gotta read it just to understand the people who read it
or to confirm that we are correct, a brazilian communist recent guest at deprogram, ian neves sometimes make a feat called Pororoca de Chorume (Slurry Wave +-) where he reads text from right wing and take it apart, like rothbard, misses mostly recent even dugin.
from rothbard a meme was created: Up grandpa, why so racist?
Pretty much everyone does
