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.

China got cut out of the list by a couple of spots, it's number 10 at 44.2%. The US is unsurprisingly low at 10.3% but France somehow managed to be lower at 8.9%.

France is weird with Unions because they don't have a massive technical membership, but a lot of supporters and people outside of unions members get the union wages and such if I am remembering correctly

Yeah in my second hand experience Unions in France are comprised of a small amount of registered members but since everyone gets the benefits in the company then they don't bother doing the work. It's a trap because that makes workers democracy a niche in which only the terminally leftists participate, alienating them from the masses, and also making lib unions super popular (when I say lib I mean literally just aiming to convince the workers that what the boss does isn't that bad)

My country rolls in with a stunning...18%. Honestly, higher than I thought we would be.

Which, depressingly, is still close to double the US.

Wonder if that was ever used as an argument to call the Nordics "socialist"
