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.

I can't believe they were piloting this submarine with a cheap controller

I believe I also saw that they were using glass graded for 1300m max for the viewport. ...for a 4000m dive.

Even if the oxygen supply wasn't an issue, I can't imagine that the thing hasn't shattered by now. I swear, this was all an elaborate ploy to get rid of rich people, because nobody would actually put together a vessel so unsuited for the task.

All of this is so ridiculous that I'm almost wondering if it's a cover-up for something. Or they're faking their deaths for some reason.

Cucumber season. A bit too early this year i guess.

I would barely trust true to form meticulously engineered and tested military SSBN submarines like the Ohio Class or Delphin Class to take me several thousand feet underwater. Forget a literal welded tin can with a PS2 controller.

About that...

Also, Los Angeles class is SSN, not SSBN. Which Delphin you mean? It has to be most common name for submarines ever.
