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.

because she had a criminal record, there could be no other sentence

That's one of the worst parts, as her prior criminal record was due to her being pretty much forced into prostitution after being kicked out of home by her abusive family.

I hope that the PRC’s law is at least more rational now. Did any officials comment on the ruling?

I couldn't find any recent official comments on that case, the original ruling essentially said that 法律无情 (direct translation as the law is heartless and impartial).

One recent case that did blow up in 2016 involved a son who defended his mother from a dozen usury debt collectors, they confined both of them and humilated the mother to a degree which caused the son to pick up a knife and fight back, killing one and injuring three. The initial police response before the stabbing was terrible, with the two officers clearly seeing the two in distress but they wrote it off as a simple civil dispute and left the area.

Originally the son was sentenced to life imprisonment, but after an outcry it was overturned to 5 years and he was out on good behaviour in 2020. As of 2022 he was set to get married. The criminal boss behind the high interest debt was sentenced to 25 years.
