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.

Its not just usa but all the western capitalist nations. The goal is to maintain workers at the lowest cost. Drugs are cheap to produce. If they make workers slightly less effective by deadening their senses it just means they will not look in to the real causes of their suffering. There are no shortage of unmedicated workers to take up the jobs that require a clear mind. If they make people die sooner it means less old age pension payouts.

That's why the original age to claim social security benefits was 65, is now 67, and they are pushing for 70, with more out-of-pocket costs for less actual care, while also beginning phase one of the criminalization of disabilities.
