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 like the term the Russians use, golden billion, for how clear and to the point it is, but I'm not going to argue that "global south" is incorrect just because of the DPRK.

Unfortunately westoids call it a "conspiracy theory," because it's apparently not clear that the west lives off the blood, sweat, and tears of the global south.

The golden billion (Russian: золотой миллиард, romanized: zolotoy milliard) theory is a conspiracy theory that a cabal of global elites are pulling strings to amass wealth for the world's richest billion people at the expense of the rest of humanity.

The whole Wikipedia page on it is hilarious. They quote a neofascist economist to "prove" that resource scarcity isn't an issue, and sourcelessly claim that colonialism/imperialism isn't a thing.
