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.
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)

I don't get what's far-fetched about it. We're talking about the same country (the US) whose FBI has done stuff like this: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/peteraldhous/fbi-entrapment (Going to great lengths to get someone to commit a crime, so they can arrest them for it)
Obviously that's not exactly the same thing we're talking about, since in this case it'd be wanting to get a result to the US's benefit, not one they'd personally want to arrest the person for, but there's even an example of offering someone money in that same article, through an informant. We know that the US has done coups and terrorism across the world. We know it's done absolutely out there stuff like project MKUltra. And this one isn't even that wild. Why is any of this a stretch?
How? A sign from the DPRK has zero value beyond "oh that's kind of neat." Coups and terrorism have meaningful end goals, not "look at this weird sign I have."
A bungling young adult and a story they can use to vilify the DPRK. And if he actually succeeds? Someone they can escalate with, trying to get him to do more and more. Frats sometimes do hazing type things that are of a similar nature ("steal such and such from so and so") and they aren't even that serious as orgs go. I'm genuinely confused as to why it's so out there to you.
it's obviously an entry level mission for the CIA
they do this bullshit all the time. if you pay attention to Russia's claims regarding Ukraine FSB (CIA) funded terrost incidents. They often get civilians to do pointless shit (for $$$), and if they succeed, the next "quest" they get is like putting a package at a certain location except hey, this time the package is a bomb.
The CIA does not give missions under the alias of CIA. They have an incredible amount of front companies and organizations including cults, NGOs, billionaire moguls, foundations of all sorts, and even government organizations like USAID.
