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've said it before, Israel Epstein is like the other Semen Hitler, when it comes to very respectable people who happen to have somewhat unfortunate names. Semen Hitler was kinda screwed over by people's choice of romanization, though, he could just as easily have been called Semyon Gitler.
And Israel Epstein is also kinda like, yeah there's a strong connotation of "apartheid regime and rich nonce", but ultimately there are a lot of people with the forename Israel and the surname Epstein — such as the famous Hawaiian musician, and the fellow who co-discovered the first known oncogenic virus in humans alongside Yvonne Barr and Bert Achong.
I know another great one. There was once a dentist in the 20s-40s in the US midwest, a man named George Washington Hitler. He didn’t change his name bc he said to paraphrase “I never disrespected my name, Adolf did” which is pretty funny bc George Washington is already a pretty tarnished name. It gets better. His son or grandson or something was named Gaylord and went by Gay Hitler.
minor correction; apparently Gay Hitler was the one from 20s to 40s in Ohio, not his dad (can't make this shit up)
Lol yeah you’re right, his grandpa (I believe) was George Washington Hitler, he thought he only had one historical reference in his name for a good couple decades. Poor guy, same with семён гитлер, they don’t deserve to be attached to probably the most despicable person on Earth if you’d ask most people
