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.

Yeah this just sounds like capitalism's effect on community not unique to your situation or location. Individualistic tendencies and competition kill community.

Making friends is hard. I've lived in a few places and if I have been able to plug into a local community it has always been as somebody's +1. Even if there is generally openness and welcome to the new community there is always a bit of hostility from several members.

If you don't move away from your family and childhood friend group, many of them will move away from your hometown. The ones that remain will bring their new connections into your community changing it's fabric and sometimes causing unbrigable rifts. People will have drama and there is no accountability to resolve those differences for the good of the community. The elders who would traditionally mediate these sort of rifts are just as consumed with individualism and factionalism so the feuds never are resolved.
