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)

got raised in a soccdem family with communist aesthetics (parents are socdem but for example dad is adamant that Stalin saved the planet).
When i was 15 the local socialist party tasked some people to reform the youth wing. i got recruited, i was the youngest. Initially i was very active and involved. As one of the first members i got to power positions relatively quickly and by 18 i was already in the "everything sucks and electoral socialism is pointless" phase. As i got mature enough to read theory and do proper research, i gradually moved closer and closer to marxist-leninist ideal and developed a more objective (and, by comparison, positive) opinion of AES countries that our media constantly demonized.
I then had like 4-5 years where i barely did anything in the party but hang around and make use of my reputation/influence i had built until then to occasionally steer the discussion on some votes. But i was already quite certain that this movement was going nowhere, so what i really cared about were the insider informations going around in the main party and in the government (i personally knew people who eventually got elected).
With time i formed my clique of closet communists who do the same, sort of hang around and coordinate to strike when needed.
now i still "pull strings" in both the youth wing and the main party, but because of my ideology i rarely engage in activism or debates. I use it as a way to scout for promising radical zoomers and as a platform to dish out the occasional marxist analysis of situations.
I'm trying to find my way towards something more serious and underground, but obv i ain't gonna share much detail right now
