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.

since chang says exactly the opposite of reality, that means that the CPC is planning to megaurbanize I see

At this point if he ever says he's a CPC plant to deceive the West by weaponizing Sinophobia, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

In this case he may even be half right, because China has been trying for the past few years to boost and uplift rural areas to counteract the decades long drain of population from the countryside to the cities, as that has caused some imbalances that the CPC recognizes, in the long run, need to be rectified.

Which is why you see a bit of a trend now happening in China where urban professionals who made good money working in the cities but want a slower lifestyle move back to their hometowns in the country and invest there, build up businesses, and bring money into communities that need it.

The government meanwhile builds the infrastructure to facilitate this rural development which would not be possible without infrastructure.
