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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Israel emerged as the country with the worst global reputation of those included in the poll

it's wild how doing an actual genocide while constantly broadcasting evidence of it during social media bragging (Israel) is really bad for the reputation, but only being repeatedly accused of one with zero evidence (China) by an increasingly bloodthirsty geopolitical rival doesn't seem like that big of a hit to the reputation.

the funding interruption to N.E.D. could not have come at a worse time for sinophobes. they are going to need a miracle to move the needle.

also, sort of amusing that Russia's reputation is steadily improving. can it really be that more people are recognizing the role of NATO expansion in that proxy war?

Russia’s global reputation has never truly faltered outside the West. As Russian strategic victory over NATO becomes evident, it is gaining significant traction around the world because it is the West and not Russia that is widely reviled.

No, USA are very much doubling down on denial.
