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 in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . 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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

What race? You don't even have the ability to race because you're sabotaging yourself at every opportunity like you're Dick Dastardly in Wacky Races. yamcha

The hearing before the committee chaired by Cruz, Commerce, Science, and Transportation, included the usual mishmash of parochial politics, lobbying for traditional space, back slapping, and fawning—at one point, Gold, a Star Trek fan, went so far as to assert that Cruz is the "Captain Kirk" of the US Senate.

Every American I know makes fun of how stupud we all were to support the knee jerk reaction to invade Iraq over nonexistent WMDs.

That wasn't a knee-jerk reaction. That was a calculated move to further subjugate Iraq. Surely you don't think that your empire's leadership actually believed their own lies, do you?

I have no idea why more educated, older adults supported it other that they lied to everyone about the weapons.

Because robbing the rest of the world is how your lifestyles have been fueled so far, coupled with indoctrination into racism. That is also why so many of you complain about Hamas, by the way.

So yes, even die hard MAGAs are pissed about the genocide. I know a Trumper that is turning on Trump over it. It is happening everywhere.

That's actually more than can be said about die-hard dems, it seems: not-listening

I agree with all that.
