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 couldn't believe how rough and run down the NYC subway system was when I visited. At least they have a somewhat adequate number of lines and what not, compared to somewhere like Toronto which has probably 1/6 the size of a subway network a city of its population and wealth should have. Hard to say what is worse.

I figured that the richest city on earth would have good public transport. When I visited for the first time I was shocked to find that there was no aircon, no cell reception, and rats fucking on the platform.

This is effective infrastructure use. Instead of having to run cell service or wifi in the tunnels just so people can browse porn on their phones, they bring the smut directly to you.
