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)

wealthy people employ an "ayi" to do house work or in some cases a "baomu" to be a nanny.
This is not popular for the money conscience middle class. they will hire a cleaner maybe a few days a month if they feel they can't keep up, but a baomu is more for the upper classes and yeh, can be gross just like you can imagine.
I am foreign worker. and a single guy who travels a lot. so many times in my life I hired an ayi to come to my apartment and do cleaning maybe twice a week.
my last full time ayi, could barely read, her daughter had just left university and was working as a paralegal.... would she retire because her daughter could afford to take care of her ? no way in he'll, the culture doesn't allow that until she's too old to work.
Thanks
