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)

Police kill an unarmed teen in France, and the country revolts. Police kill an unarmed teen in America, and we’re told to thank the police.
Je suis France.
The US rioted too. Multiple times
Then people got taken away in unmarked vans, arrested by the feds, shot at, gassed, and crippled. Then they lost their jobs, income, healthcare, and housing due to losing insurance due to “ongoing criminal cases” from rioting charges.
The US doesn’t do anything close to the scale of the French.
Were you asleep for the Floyd riots?
How about Kenosha?
The Los Angeles 1991 Rodney King riots where the city descended into such anarchy that 10,000 US Army soldiers had to be deployed?
There’s is a very very extensive list of riots similar to the ones that are going on in France. But the fact that the Floyd riots in a lot of cities don’t stack up to you is interesting.
