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)

The book is very certain because Heinlein modeled the “bugs” after the Chinese in the Korean War with the descriptions of the bugs basically bieng racial epithets, and the book is basically Nazi porn of Aryans killing “savage, communal, communist bugs”. He has stated this himself in interviews, and during the time he wrote the book he was part of several Nazi rehabilitation groups.
The classrooms scenes could also practically be replaced with several chapters from Mien Kampf, and the book wouldn’t be any different.
Direct quote from the book:
“Every time we killed a thousand Bugs at a cost of one M. I. it was a net victory for the Bugs. We were learning, expensively, just how efficient a total communism can be when used by a people actually adapted to it by evolution; the Bug commissars didn’t care any more about expending soldiers than we cared about expending ammo. Perhaps we could have figured this out about the Bugs by noting the grief the Chinese Hegemony gave the Russo- Anglo- American Alliance; however the trouble with "lessons from history" is that we usually read them best after falling flat on our chins.”
massive yikes for that quote
Wew i guess i remembered the movie better than the book.
