A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

If those are CECOT people, they're masked like that because a lot of them ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE THERE. Bukele has been open about the fact that he only hires foreign mercenaries to run CECOT (so he can circumvent a lot of things and also so outside people don't ever find out how terrible it is there EXACTLY).
