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 type of behavior is indicative of a larger cultural problem that devalues women and their contributions. It also creates an environment that reinforces the idea that men are superior and that women should not be taken seriously. By allowing this type of content, social media sites like Facebook are perpetuating this ideology.

This type of thinking is oppressive and is a form of fascism. In my opinion, if you are not a feminist, you are a fascist.

Sorry if the Facebook memes in the pic are disturbing. But I needed to make a point.

The argument over whether “sex work is work” always confused me, because either way, the only option is unionization and class solidarity. It feels like a moralistic, abstract debate to me.

It is definitely more vague in cases such as hobbyist or petite-bourgoisie sex workers, but it seems to be the same conclusion of unionization and solidarity either way?

I suppose the argument could be on whether or not it should be illegal, but that doesn’t seem like much of an argument, making it illegal to be a sex worker would make it harder for them to organize, so that shouldn’t be illegal anyways, but exploiting people’s bodies for profit is literally the worst excess of capitalism, so profiting off of sex workers definitely should be illegal. There is no room for ambiguity here.
