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

Kinda. Like littering and illegal dumping offer harborage to to pathogens and pests, stochastic political environments arising from sudden power vacuums give fuel and cover to some terrible politicians. A Trump assassination isn't going to pave the way for another Mohandas Gandhi. If anything, the next Hitler or Stalin might grow from the corpse of Trump's political movement. If a citizen of the next nation he threatens to annex assassinated him, it could be a Franz Ferdinand situation.
