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.
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 hate everything here, from the ridiculous price to the guy treating a degree like a simple matter of value exchange
it's like even the pursuit of knowledge has become just a tool to help or hinder your survival under capitalism and i really fucking hate it
"a degree is like a car" no it fucking isn't??
Commodity fetishism has entered the chat
The goal of capital is to commodify everything. Neoliberalism is the speeding up of this force.
It's treated like one by institutions even though there is much more value you can gain in terms of education and personal growth. In many fields, they don't give a shit what you actually learned at college and if it applies to the job.
