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.

This is a question I've been meaning to ask for a very long time.

Candidates:

  • Syria (ruled by Assad of the Ba'athist party, which seems to be a form of Arab Socialism)
  • Nicaragua (ruled by a Socialist party, surprised they haven't went the China route already... but then again they're within the close proximity of Usonia, so I guess it makes sense)
  • Nepal (So many Communist Parties + Already ruled by one, it would be a huge shame if it doesn't turn Socialist or go that route)

There are likely other countries too that has the potential to turn Socialist/Leftist, like Peru; but I don't know much about them so I didn't put them in there. Sorry about that. But anyway, which country do you think will be the next/Sixth AES country?

I'd consider Venezuela socialist as well, even if Bolivarian socialism isn't based on Marxism

I don't consider Venezuela socialist, but not because of the Bolivarian revolution. The majority of the economy is still privatized and at the heel of capitalists. And the news media is mostly liberal. The proletariat isn't in charge yet.

It is true that Venezuela do not have the material condition for the Socialist stage due to their dependency on oil export, the Neo-Liberal policy to specialize in only one industry, the sanction from the NATO, the thief of gold reserves in the UK, and the emigration of skilled workers. However, the Venezuelan Socialist government is now supporting many successful small entreprise and self-employed business in the cities which allow for a real competitive market economy that is suitable for the local material condition before the advancement to a Socialist stage of the economy that does not depend on oil, unlike Capitalist countries that impose heavy government intervention to support a few large capitalist class contrary to their slogan of minimal government intervention.
