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.

See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.

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.

You had to wait for a car but it’s not like in the US where a car is a mandatory (and incredibly expensive) requirement to live

In capitalist Singapore right now there is a $10,000 tax on owning a car and not many people do for this reason (on the grounds that Singapore's infrastructure couldn't work if it had to accomodate everyone in the city having a car)

That seems cool and good if people can work without a car anyway

Yeah from what the guy was telling me they have pretty extensive public transport. Land there is just too expensive to waste on car parks

But they have some of the most exceptional public transportation I have ever seen and I have been all over the world. That's a completely reasonable tax as you really don't need a car there and is a small city state.
