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)

the way i see it all stereotypes which are imposed on a people are negative, the only potentially good stereotypes are ones the a people themselves chose to identify with.
Even then, "positive stereotypes" embraced by a community still cause a lot of harm, especially when those stereotypes originate outside the community. Like Asians being "model minorities" or Black men having "BBCs"
>Like Asians being “model minorities” or Black men having “BBCs”I'm starting to think these tropes are white nationalist fearmongering.
The former is a form of divide-and-rule mentality (like the British empire marking certain 'races' as 'martial races' and effectively creating a racial heirarchy), the latter is objectification, fetishization and yes fearmongering to leverage human nature as a way to make racism part of culture.
Divide and rule is fear mongering
Asians being smart, with the implication that we are robots, walking talking calculators, etc.
