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.

I met someone who is a Free Mason. Not like a LARP thing but an actual Free Mason like the Illuminati group thing those conspiracy people on facebook rant about.

Apparently it is a real thing and he said lots of higher up people are part of it in our country. He said if I wanted to join he'd do a good word for me so of course I said yes lmao. Dying to see what it's all about.

I had a few acquaintances who were Free Masons. It's actually not a very uncommon thing, they are basically everywhere. IMHO, it's just an old men book club.

There is a Free Mason community center type building about two blocks down my street. They usually just seem to rent out the space for normal events, I even once had a work holiday party in the basement there. They are apparently legit Free Masons though, its a pretty prime piece of real estate they have too and its impossible to find out exactly who owns it. I've never properly met someone who is a part of it but it's definitely an odd bit. They advertise it here as a "men's club" sort of thing but I'd be very curious to know what type of person is involved there and what they do. Very little info on their website, and have never come across any of them in the community.

Definitely join if you can, just for the bit even.

Tfw you join the masons to find out what it's all about and you find out that every other member joined for the same reason, except Melvin, who turns up to every meeting complaining about the good old days.
