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.

The Axis and its collaborators exterminated five to six million Jews (and people who were legally Jewish) through bullets, explosives, hangings, fire, willful negligence (leading to dehydration, hypothermia, emaciation, illnesses, and suicides), involuntary experiments, and hand‐to‐hand combat, in addition to the poisoning. Uncommon methods included drowning, vivisepulture, and running vehicles over victims.

I know that this sounds pedantic, but I have seen with my own eyes how the misconception that the Third Reich exterminated six million Jews through gas chambers alone has made it easier for militant anticommunists to deny the Shoah. I also feel like mentioning that while the Fascists did refer to Jews like Herschel Grynszpan and Theodore N. Kaufman as justifications for antisemitism, the Axis’s motives for committing the Shoah were more complex than those.

and also over 5 million non-Jews (communists, roma, homosexuals, trade unionists, etc.) were killed

They were replying to my comment with a quote .

But yeah I agree people often say the extermination was just through gas chambers. Meanwhile even not mentioning widespread pogroms or the atrocities like babyn yar.
