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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

LATAM Right-Wingers are very sane people CW: Israel Flag and Cringe

Led by Congressman Hélio Lopes, Bolsonaro supporters are camping outside the Supreme Court. Afraid of making coup-mongering speeches, as they did last time, they are now dancing in a circle and crying for Bolsonaro not to be arrested.

Hélio Fernando Barbosa Lopes (Rio de Janeiro, March 28, 1969), also known as Hélio Negão (literally: big black Hélio) and Hélio Bolsonaro, is a Brazilian politician and former military officer.

He is also president of “PL Integration”, a group within the Liberal Party that seeks to “give a voice to right-wing blacks”. He became known during Jair Bolsonaro's administration for being a constant presence at the president's side on official trips abroad. As a member of parliament, he demonstrated his opposition to the black movement and to initiatives for historical reparations for slavery, arguing that affirmative action should be based on social, not racial, criteria. He also said that black people can't be “hostages of the left”, Hélio became known on social media as “Bolsonaro's black man”.

So pathetic. I have relatives in Latin America (won't be more specific for op sec reasons), but I can't even say anything because they'll say "you don't know, you grew up in the US, you don't know how bad communism has been in South America" (and they'll call evens liberals communists). It's hard to fight back against that because there's nothing I can say to prove right-wing candidates have done way more damage, I can't reference history, news, anything.

I've also seen that same argument used by people in Eastern Europe actually to say you don't know how bad communism was there, so all your statistics and facts and figures mean nothing, you weren't from there. Therefore, everything to the left is bad, and no further words can be exchanged.
