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.

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.

No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)

God I hate this new censor in YouTube that silences banned words like "murder" or "suicide". First off, removing the word but maintaining the context changes absolutely fucking nothing, regardless of the type of content. Secondly, it actually calls more attention to the word itself because of the sudden sound cut and your mind quickly fills the blank, so you're even more likely to go "oh, suicide".

I understand (though still find stupid) silencing swear words, though it should be a client side optional thing. Silencing "bad words" is just stupid and can make serious videos about serious topics (like, say, a documentary about war) sound horribly silly with every other word silenced out.

Sounds like this:

James ____ John three times in the head ____ing him instantly. Two years later he was charged with first degree _____, but was eventually acquitted. In this lecture we'll explore this famous ______ case.
