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.

"A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic" -J. V. Džugašvili

Funny story. The first time I read that quote was from Call of Duty 2. I was pretty apolitical and ignorant about history. I didn't have some blanket negative view of Stalin back then so I actually liked the quote. I didn't think it was negative or some evil maniac giggling about how he could kill millions because it was a statistic. I thought he was lamenting the fact that the death of one 'great' figure would be treated as a tragedy and the deaths of millions (his countrymen) would be treated as a statistic. The Georgian poet strikes again.
