Being programmers and what not, are they supposed to be this gullible?

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.
If you haven't already found it, this GitHub page is an excellent collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics, made by @dessalines and others.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a private Matrix room. See this thread for more information.
Rules:
take it from a programmer, folks: knowing how to make computer do magic doesnt equate to general intelligence or automatically make one better at unrelated things like politics. computer shit is a skill like any other that just happens to have a (false) connotation of "high intelligence" whatever that means.
sorry fellow nerds, you aint special. read lenin.
Also a code monkey. Programming requires very little intelligence (not that intellugence is even real).
Seconded from a (probably far worse) programmer.
+1 more from a software developer. I'm getting more alienated from my work every day :/
this is the truth and it applies to all fields
I've met a fair share of programmers who think they're a unique gift to the world but could barely tie their own shoelaces figuratively
Any specific text from him?
State and Revolution; Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism; "Left-Wing" Communism: An Infantile Disorder; and What is to be Done? are the texts I see most often recommended.
