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)

I remember there was a lot of arguing about this around that time. People were literally repeating the "tanks ran over corpses repeatedly to mulch them" story. Top minds of .
It's gospel here in Australia. You're super massively weird if you don't believe it
Same in Canada. I remember being taught about the Tiananmen "massacre" in a really graphic and honestly traumatizing way in sixth grade. What I don't remember is being taught about the genocide of American indigenous peoples with nearly the same level and type of emotion attached to it.
I was in an international school, in occupied Hong Kong, right after it happened.
I remember my teacher showing us the tank man photo on the front page of the South China Morning Post.
I remember him telling us to think about (i.e. assume) what would happen next to that brave man.
I remember it vividly, because I was an 8-year-old being told by a trusted adult to imagine a man being run over by a tank. I wouldn't see the actual tank man video and find out what really happened next for nearly 2 decades.
Fucking wormtongue ghouls.
