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 don't know if I'm being overly paranoid or what, but I can't tell if it's safe for me openly publish some spicy stuff under my legal name. Not to sound like I think I'm the most popular girl at school, but don't most prominent leaders go by pseudonyms the rest of their lives? Not saying I'm Lenin but...

EDIT: Alright comrades you've won me over. New name, new me.

You felt the need to ask for a reason, so yes use a pseudonym.

Will make it harder for rightwing freaks to dox you, so I say yes, but tbh if you fear retribution from the state there’s a lot more you need to do

My vote is yes. It will probably make you somewhat risk free

OP definitely should use a pseudonym, but that's unfortunately nowhere near enough to decouple the essays from their real identity on the Internet 😐

If you are still somewhat young, its better to use a pseudonym. I'm not sure how "spicy" we are talking, but you might not be as much of an "extremist" when you grow up, so it's better to not have these ideas permanently linked to your name. It might even affect job prospects, no matter whether you change your ideology or not.

Hopefully I'm packitng to the choir here, but passing with a VPN is also a good idea.
