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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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.

Libs seem to think the only way to prevent world war 3 is to destroy or subjugate the rest of the world. So the only way to prevent the world war is to have it, I guess. Somehow that makes sense
Yeah that's about it. When I told him I think we should defund the military he said that there are "people who would slit your throat the second they get the chance if you let them". Just the most chauvinistic old school racist savage barbarians at the gates type nonsense. It was a good reminder why I stopped trying to talk to him about politics.
people who say shit like that creep me out, it feels like they would murder people if they think they could get away with it. makes me think of the God-humpers who will say "everyone would just [redacted] and murder without God" but reasonable people say "I'm doing as much of that stuff as I want right now: zero"
there's also of course zero thought as to what kind of material conditions would make the putative throat-slitter so desperate or how those conditions came to be. nope, they're just evil brown savages or whatever
They tend to be the people who fantasize about ~~murdering their neighbors~~ "fending for themselves" in the apocalypse
He was confessing. Thats a confession
idk some trump acolyte might take that 51st state shit seriously someday.
