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

- 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've been getting that sentiment lately as well. I can understand China's issue with not wanting to appear as aggressive or as "unfairly biased" and I do worry as well that it is a genuine philosophy, which while very different from neoliberal "philosophy", still hits some of the same unfortunate notes.
It's helpful to remember though that after over a century of colonial domination, China definitely still has the collective cultural memory of what it's like being strangled, abused, enslaved and molested by colonial powers and foreign agents, so they are very hesitant to even somewhat challenge other countries in internal or interpersonal affairs, but that kind of thinking has its limits.
