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)

of course, lebensraum drew straight from manifest destiny, USA and its lapdogs have yet to answer for their crimes
hey have you watched "the man in the high castle" it's about alternative universe in which the nazis won, can you imagine if that happened, can you imagine if they just took over an entire continent and murdered almost everyone on it and installed a fascist christian ethnostate and went about playing world police for 80 years, that would be real fucked up
I made a similar observation several years ago. For the American tribes still present, The Man in the High Castle is a reality for them.
My favorite part about the book is that there's an alt-alt-history novel the characters will sometimes read, The Grasshopper Lies Heavy where instead the Allies win the alt-history version of WW2. In the alt-alt-history, after the Allies win they basically do a positive imperialism where they conquer Africa and China, somehow eliminate poverty, spread the New Deal worldwide, then the US and UK get into a cold war that the UK wins.
I took it to mean that PKD thought even in a liberal's wildest imagination, even when under the direct threat of fascism, they'd write a book about how they almost win and then lose.
no but I've watched Harry Potter. Expelliarmus! Crypto Patronym! Terra Nullius!
Yet to answer for, yet to pay restitution, yet to even truly liberate us even
