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.

Arguably, this is part of cultural DNA of the united states, which forebears arrived to escape authoritarian persecution, and whose Constitution assumes the state is there to deprive the rights from citizens, which must be protected from the state via laws, rather than believing that a state can also work to specifically enact and protect those rights, that without a state there ARE no rights.

I mean the authoritarian persecution was that everyone kept running them out for being hyper-reactionary religious weirdos, and tbh the genocidal settler state they would go on to build has kind of proven their persecutors right

It has been said that the British settlers that went to America arguably didn't escape prosecution as much as they escaped to prosecute others freely.
