news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

People love minimizing the antiimmigration violence happening in this country when it’s the chuds in power. They increased the ICE budget by, like, 300%. Iiirc it has a higher budget than the FBI, NSA, and CIA.
That money is not going to just sit there. If they don’t use it now, in the next 4 years, don’t worry, it’ll be the dems using and that’s when we’ll really start talking about it I guess
Anti immigration violence is pretty normalised in western countries though
Thought ending statement
The thought should be ended - people have loved minimising violence against migrants since the commencement of settler colonial states and I think it's pretty central to their establishment
The thought about violence against immigrants increasing exponentially in the past year shouldn’t be ended
If my googling is right, it's a higher budget than the FBI and CIA's budget combined.
ICE is going to start doing coups in Chicago
This is so fucked.
170bn is a huge amount of money
