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)

This is a very naive understanding of how 'media attention' works under capitalism. greta doesn't spontaneously become an internet sensation it was carefully planned, you can read more about this here
I don't understand the last paragraph of your comment greta is not our friend that we can 'push to our side' during a dinner conversation, you seem to have developed some parasocial feelings for her. but that's fine i will not hate or reject potential comrades like you for being impacted by western propaganda
I wasn't just talking about her I was talking about how we react to people in general. This is just one example of someone makes a stupid comment or something and unless we know they are acting in bad faith we should be more cautious about reacting with such vitrol as I have seen here and elsewhere.
I didn't know the background of where she got started. I didn't rly care. My thoughts on the subject was "oh look a climate change activist that is popular and said a few based things. That's cool. Maybe they will keep being based." Which then turned to disappointment but I felt some comments were being a bit harsh. This was the first thing I've seen of her being a major lib and falling in line with western narratives but then I don't follow ppl like this... Or anyone for that matter. This site is like 90% of my exposure to what's going on in the world.
