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.

The whole gig industry is shady as shit, from Uber to those uninsured delivery drivers, most of them refugees in a vulnerable position (in Europe anyway).

Uber is just a taxi service where the company doesn't have to follow the normal taxi regulations and safety, pays its drivers at a much worse rate, doesn't have to pay anything for servicing vehicles or licensing drivers, and sells your travel data.

And it specifically undercuts existing taxi unions, hollowing out those jobs and the decades of negotiatons that they won, while also increasing cost to users. Meanwhile, I know people who've lost money while working for uber and doordash.
