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.
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)

I'm going to lose my mind once all the libs I know start claiming they never supported Ukraine.
Screenshot and record everything. Make sure they will never forget.
They'll still whine and complain about being held accountable. I straight up saw a thread once that stated "tankies being right doesn't mean they're right!"
I fucking hate it.
Doesn't matter, same song and dance every time and they never learn. When they are given a new Cause to rally behind, they will even as they throw the last one under the bus.
"Yeah, they really fooled us with Ukraine, but THIS TIME we know that (probably China) is the real threat to humanity!"
There is a big difference between changing your mind and being such a massive tool that you get whipped into a blood frenzy by the media and then drop that whole notion on a dime. All while calling those who tell you that you are being duped puppets of the Communists/Saddam/Putin etc. ..
Happend in Vietnam, happend in Irak, happend in Afghanistan, is currently happening in Ukraine and it will happen again in the next region the USA fights a war or proxy war over.
So no I wouldn't let them get away with "I changed my mind."
I agree.
Still, it won't stop smug liberals from using this 'argument' to shut down discussion.
Yeah. Being a Communist in the first world sometimes feels like being Cassandra. We know we are right, history keeps proving us right and yet no one believes us.
Just call them out on their horseshit.
They will either deny it or do some fake narcissistic self-reflection of growth and learning.... and then promote whatever contemporary conflict is happening then.
Vietnam was bad, but current war isnt
Iraq war was bad but current war isnt
