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)

He was most definitely a Nazi
I heard in a Citations Needed episode that he funded schools so they would teach country music and tap dancing to children to suppress the cultural permeation of jazz music and some other non-white genre.
Exactly. He despised jazz and black Americans. That cultural permeation of tap dancing still remains to this day in fact.
Damn now I know why that stupid fucking dance has such a large cultural cachet
I thought he hated country to? I was under the impression he funded squaredancing since country music was to socialists, which successfully undermined that cultural movement.
I don't have a primary source but:

There's quite a bit more about his Nazi ties in this article by Losurdo.
Kind of a chicken and the egg thing, since his anti-Semitic book The International Jew influenced the Nazis.
Nazism and it’s tenants have existed for a long time, the Nazis just gave the concentrated ideology a name.
