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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

labour is gutting the welfare state in uk and the republicans are doing the same in the us, yet people insist that the labour is somehow better than the tories like americans insist that the democrats are better than the republicans; i really wish people could wake up from this mass delusion to stop supporting any of them.

That's not even how money works.

I wonder if they actually believe this shit.

UK really being the herald of the "you own nothing" future of capitalism. I guess they are trying to rid of excess population.

It would be kinder to legalise assisted suicide than let us starve to death.

It would be kinder to actually not make life horrible for disabled people in general. But Kindness is not their thing now, is it.

They are legalising assisted suicide. In the most capitalist, money-hungry way possible of course.

Not quickly enough for me in the UK, I would have taken it by now.

Fuck this country.
