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.

1 in 4 Dutch people are now afraid to wear sun screen because they think it gives them cancer. Instead they just bake in the giant ball of radiation in the sky without protection.

I guess this is Darwinism but the stupidity of so many people is frightening.

Many, if not most, sunscreens use certain ingredients that breakdown in UV light and produce carcinogens that can be absorbed by the skin. It was a relatively large exposรฉ a few years ago. My doctor has equally told me that the sun isn't the primary factor in whether you get cancer and people without the genetic predisposition for skin cancer aren't going to get it from sun exposure.

Not that I don't wear sunscreen, but I select my sunscreen very very carefully and review the latest consumer research on cancer-causing ingredients.

Tell me Dutchman, is it true that Dutch people are among the least likely in all of Europe to wash their hands after they use the bathroom?

Yes I think that is correct unfortunately. I wouldn't even be surprised if that was somehow rooted in white supremacy or something.
