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)

Good stuff. On this part:
I take it it's meant to be a logical thing? Like: So long as there is a possibility of a solution, you can try. When there isn't a possibility, there's nothing to solve at that point. (Though there are probably few cases that would fit with there being no possible solution.)
Or do you have some other meaning in mind?
It's a dialectical meaning. If there's no solution to a problem, then you have something other than a problem on your hands. An impossibility or a fatality. You must thus reframe that impossibility until it becomes a problem so that a solution for it exists.
In practical terms: I'm hungry on this desert island and there's no food around me -> being hungry is not a fatality, I can find food -> finding food becomes the problem, how do I solve it? -> I'll go walk around the beach and look for coconut trees.
Ohh gotcha, thanks for clarifying!
