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.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information.

- 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

Deflation is actually a good thing lol.
This is what I’m very confused about. I read before that deflation is a sign of a slowdown/recession in the economy but like also having your current worth more/prices going down sounds objectively good to me? Is there any good Devil’s advocate position that can put forth any negatives for deflation because China certainly doesn’t seem like a slowing economy to me.
One devil advocates would be that debt increases in value. Since Americans are perpetually in debt, that would be bad.
Ah, good point. Pretty interesting stuff, never thought about that before
