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.

How many careers did Iraq and Afghanistan end? Not zero, but not a lot, either.

The cycle is roughly:

  1. This war is a good one, I swear!
  2. See how awful and inept the other guys are, we have to win!
  3. We'll fight as long as it takes!
  4. Wait, that war is still going? Old news.
  5. Hmm, suddenly there are some reports about our guys not being perfect.
  6. Oh shit it looks like there's war crimes and graft and boondoggles all over!
  7. Who wanted this war again?
  8. OK they didn't beat us, we were sabatoged and the locals were corrupt!
  9. Fuck, why do all these people armed with our weapons hate us?
  10. Huh looks like all the war crimes we did were way worse than first revealed.
  11. Ah hell, that war was a whole entire decade ago, we've changed!
  12. OK seriously guys, this war is a good one, I swear!

Rinse and repeat. American voters haven't learned a thing.
