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)

Rybar reports 3 aircraft shot down by Wagner, aviation is striking at Wagner columns. Footage of a blown up oil depot and a highway crossing has come up. After they took over the HQ of the Southern Military District in Rostov this morning and blocked off the city. Prigozhin met the Deputy Minister of Defence there, what happened to him is unclear.
This is definitely serious. People are dying already.
And all that, because Wagner wants the head of the MOD removed...which is the dumbest fucking reason for an armed rebellion I've ever heard.
That does seem far more serious than the last thing I've read. But for my own sanity I will not follow the news closely today.
Also, CIA-backed insurgents around the world in shambles
Yeah, there is no universe in which a rebellion aimed at toppling only a portion of the government works, at least if you're going up against a strong and popular leader (which Putin appears to be).
