Rojava is a key reason the Assad government fell. They selfishly refused to work with the Syrian state, siding with the USA to prevent the government from receiving oil revenue which it desperately needed to rebuild. Rojava could have been a shining example for a united Syria, but the Kurds refused.
Good question, but I'm unfortunately not familiar with them. I was simply inspired by their statement and felt it needed to be shared.
For what it's worth, wikifedcia calls them an ally of the Lebanese Communist party so I'm not sure if claims of them being anti-communist are accurate. They also call them allies of Hezbollah.
Oh companions and citizens, oh sons of our proud people, oh free people of this land..
The battle today with our enemy is not just a fleeting war, and it is not just an ordinary round of fighting. It is the great battle of existence, it is the decisive moment in our nation's history: either we be free masters on our land, or they want us to be crushed once and for all and erased from the map of time.
Oh free people..
Your enemy does not target a party, a sect, or a region, but targets your existence as a living nation. It seeks to displace you, to break your will, and to make your land violated. Therefore, the response today is not only with bullets on the front, but with unity and solidarity in every neighborhood and street.
Embracing the displaced is a bullet in the chest of the enemy; every house that opens its doors to our displaced people is a front-line trench. And every morsel you share with your brothers is ammunition that strengthens the resolve of the fighters.
The enemy bets on your division, on your despair, and on your distress. Disappoint their assumption! Prove to them that we are one body; if a member in the South, the Bekaa, or the Dahiyeh suffers, the rest of the nation rises for it with vigil, shelter, and support.
This is your chance for history. Your grandchildren will not ask you tomorrow what you said, but they will ask what you did when existence was threatened. Were you the support? Were you the embrace? Were you the invincible popular resistance?
Oh our youth.. oh our people.. oh free people, arise to contribute. Take the initiative to open homes, to organize aid, to secure medicine and food. Do not wait for anyone, for each of you today is a leader in your field.
The steadfastness of our people in the displacement centers is what protects your own homes from falling. Embracing them is an act of existence, it is a declaration to the whole world: We are a nation that does not die, we are a people that refuses annihilation, and we are remaining here like our mountains.. free forever!
Victory is ours.. and glory to the nation! Long live Syria.
Liberal Iranians who screech about "bringing democracy to Iran" have no ground to stand on. The supposed democracy of the United States of America has just voted for a war that the vast majority of the American people are opposed to.
Agreed. In addition, this modern obsession with worker productivity, where you're purposely not given any downtime to collect your thoughts or reflect on your achievements and failures is a big driver in creating this "fake" or perhaps better described as "unproductive" work in the first place.

"When the coffins with the bodies of American soldiers and officers are brought in, when they come in vertically and leave horizontally, then Trump and his administration will realize that they have lost the region and will lose the elections. If we achieve this goal, and we will achieve it with God's help, the liberation of Al-Quds [Jerusalem] will be just a step away. When the Americans leave our region, the Zionists will pack up and leave with them. We won't even have to fight against Israel."
