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
- 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)

Like dudithebudi said listen to them and respond. Think of it like improv, they say a subject, (any subject) and you say "yes, and... its capitalism's fault" (some people might respond better to the ruling class, the billionaires, big corporations, etc) Nearly every problem comes back to capitalism, even the weather.
Once you have established that the problem is capitalism you say "and under communism that problem wont happen." and as they scoff and say "but communism never works" (or whatever other slander they have against communism) you say "Who told you that? Capitalists. bit of a conflict of interest there hey?" "capitalists have a monopoly on education, media, art, and culture, and they use that control to demonize their only legitimate rival." Then send them to Yellow Parenti.
Yellow Parenti jumpscare. Thanks for the response comrade. They seem to be open to dialogue so I'll try again with this approach. I think the recent events (Epstein, Cuba etc.) have already "softened" the general population to the idea that maybe capitalism isn't really all that great, so that might give a good starting point.
