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.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
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

Regardless what you think about Hasan, that's an insane thing to say. If the status quo is targeting him it's because they really see him as a threat. Enemies of my enemy, yk.
It's a scare tactic. They're making an example of him to make anything further left seem untenable.
He's a democrat shill, a sheep dog. He is still peddling the "Uyghur Genocide" ffs. He isn't doing us any favors.
At least as a martyr the left could co-opt him and say it was because he was leaning into full on communism.
Interesting idea, all things considered it would minimize the damage of him proclaiming himself a communist to such a wide audience all the while spreading uncritical liberal ideology. Still though, all attempts should be made to prevent this from happening as an attack on any working class is an attack on us all. Plus if he survives we may have to consider his fame and the parasocial aspects of alienated american society contributing to him becoming viewed as a Mandela-figure setting us back another 40 years.
piker is not working class. His dad is a literal billionaire. He was a VP on the board of a multi billion dollar financial conglomerate that is one of the largest 20 in companies Turkey.
When has that literally ever stopped an American from venerating a public figure?
This is a good heuristic for figuring out whether someone is trustworthy. If Republicans hate you but Democrats love you, you're probably terrible. If Democrats hate you but Republicans love you you're also terrible. If both parties hate you, then you may have some potential for good.
The problem with Hasan is that only a part of the Democratic party hates him. He needs to do better. He needs to stop shilling for so-called "progressive" Dems, because at the end of the day they're still Dems, they're still associating with a party that wants to see Hasan dead no matter how much "lesser evil-ism" he preaches in favor of voting for Democrats. He goes to bat for people who call Venezuela and Cuba dictatorships, which is exactly the narrative that is used to go after Hasan when he finally does something productive with his wealth and clout to help Cuba.
