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)

All of the ones of size block us to my knowledge. Even the piracy one which went out of their way to state they're against blocking other instances unless they cross way over the line blocked us almost right away despite the fact we have "relevant communities" which they said was a good condition for keeping federation (we literally have a left-piracy community here and many of the people on /c/movies openly talk about their alternatives to streaming).
The liberals decry us for "hate speech" though they can't ever say what of. And of course simply the thought-terminating screech of "tankies" which instantly shuts down any further discourse. The anarchists and other CIA-compatible left who make up the only other major left instances of course despise us.
Hilarious to see at least two instances with rules that state all ideologies are allowed oh but not tankies. Implying of course fascists are welcome but not us. Not surprising.
We may well end up far more isolated than we ever were on reddit, silently blocked by nearly every major instance, no capitalist algorithms mindlessly shoving us in the faces of liberals for rage engagement, just all of us here siloed away. The flip side is we won't have liberals invading us but the downside is even less exposure than before and people will have to create a separate account if they want to interact with literally any other sizeable lemmy instance because they all block us. Which means less chance to spread our ideas. It's a real dual edged sword. Reddit itself had its problems but it did develop in the later years tools which meant:
Of course since Ukraine all the major subs have been under lock and key and posting anything anti-imperialist is a quick trip to ban-town after many downvotes so perhaps the ideal has been gone for a year now anyways.
