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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

i remember a tweet below that jewish insider piece defending RSF mentioning how now everybody's talking about what's going on in sudan and not christians getting attacked in nigeria. it's completely possible that a trump aide or fox news commentator saw that and started chirping about nigeria which planted this seed into trump's brain. trump's completely demented, he's always listening to the last person that talked to him and pulled his nutsacks. fuck this.
I went to Nigeria specifically to help out a "missionary" ministry back in 2013ish, and the "christians are being murdered there just for our faith!" thing was a huuuuuuge line. After spending a couple months there though, that was largely disproven, and one of the locals their explained how it happens pretty well to me, at least in Jos, where we stayed. Jos is a city that's basically 50/50 christian/muslim. geographically anyway, not sure on the demographics. North was muslim, south was christian. The people that live in Jos are all friendly. Work and live and play together, all the time. But when outside extremists come to the area specifically for an attack, they know if they just target whichever area they hate, they can set off a bomb or start a fire or whatever and kill 95% christians/muslims. its fucked, and what makes it more fucked is that none of the missionaries care when it was muslims getting slaughtered. it only registered when it was christians, and that's why we needed to go to jos to save our christian brethren!
What?
