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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

it's weird how threatened they are by those protests. i can't figure out if it's just them "trolling" or they are actually threatened by a bunch of (mostly) libs just having a street fair
it's like, you are supposed to let the libs enjoy their playpen and ignore it but they can't help but get wound up into searing white hot rage by even the basic pressure relief valve stuff
really interesting times. i don't think we use historical fascists as a good weather vane for what might be coming, because everything is so twisted and brain poisoned from the internet.
it's like society was forced into a kind of ad hoc gesalt consiousness and we are all swinging back and forth trapped inside a demented sociopaths inner monologue and intrusive thoughts
It’s faux outrage to appease their supporters. The No Kings Protest brought to you by the democratic party and fuckin wallmart are exactly what they want. They get nothing done, they’re nonviolent, they placate liberals and fixate their attention, and they’re an instagram moment for millennials and gen x with their “blah blah brunch” signs. What everyone was seeing in L.A. at the time the original no kings was announced is the opposite of what they want. People burning cop cars because they are losing their relatives the fucking gestapo getting shitloads of support and attention from the public. Notice how they’re doing this one while Chicago and Illinois are going down? Literally Nazis pulling children out of houses? Calling liberals snakes is an insult to snakes.
everyone who knew the outrage machine was just bullshitting for votes is dead, your fox news granddad runs the country now
I feel like these people were begging for some sort of great left wing uprising on the scale of George Floyd in 2020 that would allow them to go full scorched Earth on their opponents and since they haven’t gotten it they need to lathe it into existence.
