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)

Also, these are the kind of people who suffer most at the hands of the empire, both at its height and in its decline, not the ones the most petty feelings would wish will suffer most: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/7011701
Once again, it is the most marginalized who bear the brunt of the suffering. You have to create consequences for the colonizers, not sit around and hope some votes that are part of their own machine will boomerang consequences back on them.
Yes, your argument is entirely valid. After witnessing an actual genocide being ignored (dems literally covering their ears), or applauded (republicans giving netanyahu a standing ovation). I stopped caring.
My own blood is being killed overseas by these bastards who have zero morals, I think it will get worse before it gets better, but america as a society is irredeemable in my opinion.
I'm sorry. I hope I don't come across like I'm trying to tell people how they should feel about it. People's feelings are their own. And FWIW, as USian culture goes, I don't see it as something that can survive if the region is to be decolonized. Some form of mass cultural reformation would probably need to happen alongside a new system of power that is in partnership with (not dominion over) fully sovereign indigenous nations, in order to get past all the deeply embedded colonizer thinking and behavior, including all the racism and so on. It's a really messy situation and sometimes I wish I had been born somewhere I had an actual ethnic heritage and culture, instead of "blend of european whose ancestors came over to join in the colonization at some point." :/
