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.

I knew it was inevitable, but I finally decided to part ways with some people who I've been clinging onto. They've been a bad influence and refuse to change for the better. I have treated them with my utmost patience and given them every opportunity to show even the slightest willingness to be better.

The only thing it has cemented in me is that I can't beat material conditions with ideology. I'm always open to the possibility that I am wrong, it just hasn't happened. It's like water mixing with oil, destined to separate, without an emulsifier.

Part of this has been my own faul with my lack of trust in people, fluidity can be a good quality it makes adapting to new things easier, but without a current-water can become impure and repulsive.

And maybe it's true, maybe a lot of people have become untrustworthy, maybe there are a lot of liars and schemers out there who want to take advantage of each other. It's possible that I will run into such people again, some of them are the vilest they're the ones who hide their fangs and bide their time, waiting for the perfect opportunity to pounce on you, but courage is required to build a better world. Otherwise you'll just end up with liars and schemers on top of everything.
