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.
Serious posts can be posted here and/or in /c/GenZhou.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information.
Rules:
- This community is explicitly pro-AES (China, Cuba, the DPRK, Laos and Vietnam)
- No ableism, racism, misogyny, transphobia, etc.
- No pro-imperialists, liberals or electoralists
- No dogmatism/idealism (Trotskyism, Gonzaloism, Hoxhaism, anarchism, etc.)
- Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively

One only look into politics if they need to.
When you have a comfortable life there's no objective reason to question the structure of power are oneself is immersed into.
Because programmers generally get a comfortable lifestyle from the compensation for their work, they can easily believe that wages generally correlates to skill and effort, becoming completely oblivious to the concept of surplus value. From that point on they are susceptible to reinforcing dominant ideology.
Speaking as a programmer trying to rally the class. It's hard! Too much anecdotal evidence that things are fine, apparently. But I want to believe tides are starting to change.
