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.

I think all Amerikkkans share some level of guilt, while the average amerikkkan has a large amount of fault.
When I was growing up it felt like everyone had a family member in the military.
Even then, a perfect example of our guilt would be something as simple as buying bananas. It seems innocent enough to buy a bushel of bananas for $1.50, but how much suffering was enacted to ensure the price of those banana?
We can say the same about our gas prices, cheap phones, chocolate, coffee, the list can go on forever if we're being honest.
A lot of amerikkkans seem to forget just how much privilege we have in regard to the abundance of cheap goods at our disposal.
When my parents travel overseas they make sure to fill an entire checked bag with OTC medicine, chocolates, even clothes. My mom even buys phones and other electronics for my relatives before she goes lol.
People are under the impression that the goods cannot be underpriced because of the ramp-up in rentier extraction. I think this mostly just hardens Americans against any course of action that isn't just making more dealz for the superprofits
