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.

I love how their response was functionally "nuh uh"

"Veneer of improved material conditions"is wild when there's clearly been an increase in real wages, purchasing power of the average Chinese citizen, technological and infrastructural advances implemented across Chinese soceity.

Things that have direct measurable increases and decreases which clearly illustrate an improvement in quality of life for the average person are only illusionary changes to material conditions.

Of course anything they say afterwards should be dismissed, they are not living in reality yet are staunchly declare that their ideological commitment is to materialism. There idea of improvement to material conditions is thusly incapable of being reflected by measurable or observable phenomenon, but instead a subject of theoretical interpretation where their own scrutiny is absolute.
