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)

The DNC is freaking out because they never expected that people would actually vote for socialists in their party.
Source? I am curious to read up on the details.
Just the usual Hasan stuff. They're going after him because it'd be a bad look to go after Mamdani or Sayed publicly https://www.newsweek.com/hasan-piker-condemned-by-jeffries-ossoff-and-other-democrats-full-list-12376581
Ngl
It may be a bit obvious from some of my recent comments but I think I may be warming up to Hasan
At least he's not disappointing me like the Anfal genocide apologist Hakim and Bad "faked being native Argentinian on Reddit for five years before revealing he's actually an Australian expat" Empanada.
Idk, I may still be in my "jaded" arc, give me time.
Lol. Hasan is the Democratic Party's most loyal footsoldier. He has done more to help Democrats get elected than any DNC stooge. And this is not a compliment to Hasan, quite the opposite. Hasan keeps shilling for people who hate his guts and will never change, like an abused spouse deluding themselves that they can change their abusive partner. Just leave!
To be fair, the Democratic party is not a party in the sense of the 'normal' European party democracies. The American duopoly is quite a bit different to most other "liberal democracies". Standing as a Democrat requires running in the Primary system, not a party membership or attendance of conferences or whatever. Dem/Rep are more like wrappers over a formal two-party system like the Communist Party is the wrapper of a socialist one-party democracy.
Minor parties fulfil a similar role in the US as they do in something like China, they have low to no access to the levers of power and never will, and are only allowed in so far as they serve no real threat to the duopoly/single party democracy.
I've heard that excuse before and i still don't buy it. The duopoly won't go away unless people stop voting for it. Leftists in the US need to let the Democratic party die.
Yeah it's bullshit. People organized independent communits parties where it was illegal to do so. Americans have no excuse, even British Trots have their own parties now.
Oh I see. Looks especially absurd. The gist of the article seems to be that dems are trying to shoot the messenger. From the look of it, somewhat-leftist Hasan is telling them "hey maybe you shouldn't be such staunch zionists, that might go badly for you" and they're like "gasp how dare you insinuate that being a rabid zionist could lead to anything but peace and prosperity!" Instead of going "hmm maybe he has a point, there are a lot of people who are pissed off at zionists for committing genocide on an actively ongoing basis, or, if they are geographically distant from it, offering ideological support to zionism and the israel colonization/occupation project".
