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.

I would say that Japan pre-1930s was trying to do with China what the US today has mostly done to Europe, trying to incrementally gain control by installing puppet officials and promoting the idea of "shared values" to blind people of being exploited. Luckily, a lot of pro-Japanese in China got removed in mass protests and Japan eventually resorted to war when their incremental strategies weren't working.
