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)

Bold of you to assume. In seriousness though, I think it’s likely that a lot of Westerners don’t even think to think about how diverse Chinese food may or may not be, or even if they do, would have difficulty grasping how diverse it truly is.
I think part of that stems from Westerners (at least where I live) struggling to comprehend how large, populous, and diverse China is as a country. It's presented and taught as a monolith, unless the media/government is trying to push a secessionist movement, then all of a sudden everyone thinks they're an expert on an ethnic group they only thought of as "Chinese" until influencers told them they're oppressed.
