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)

Many of the white supremacist institutions defining the United States are also fundamental to Latin American society. That's true both historically and contemporaneously. Latin American states deliberately convey the idea that they are harmonious multiracial societies, which might explain why, say, Brazil doesn't come to mind as readily as the United States here. Even so, the Latin-American "mestizaje" is mostly analogous to the Anglo-American "melting pot" in all the most important ways, namely that Black and Indian people are similarly oppressed and marginalized.

I'm an Ohioan, so maybe some of our Latino/a comrades can fill in the gaps here.
