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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

It is strange to me when I tell an American online I live in Mexico and they are like "Oh wow, isn't it... Dangerous?!?"

[–] JohnBrownsBawdy@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

Is their next question

Is everything there really sepia?

Hello, it's me, Kash Patel, we found a blahaj, a gender extremist transgender symbol, near the scene of the crime at the local IKEA 62.1 miles away. I will now take any questions, except questions why I haven't told the rest of the group about my zombie bite.

[–] MemesAreTheory@hexbear.net 52 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (7 children)

That guy can't be okay. He looks incredibly not okay in every photo I've seen of him. Like, if he were okay, that would not be what his face looks like 100% of the time, and surely we would have caught him looking normal and cool and okay at least once by now.

[–] MarxusMaximus@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I believe it's in-over-his-head face.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Didn't he look the same Even before he got the role?

[–] JohnBrownsBawdy@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

mass shootings at a bar, casino, and a church within 12 hrs of one another is very much Stable Non-Declining Undisputed Superpower That Isn’t Actively Undergoing Societal Collapse shit, i think blob-no-thoughts

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

it's called a "hat trick" and other nations are clearly just jealous (they hate us for our freedom)

Holy fuck 2/3 of them (not the casino shooter) were Iraq vets too?

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 62 points 1 month ago (2 children)

If this shit is conveniently blamed on antifa or "the left" I will scream.

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 71 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

This is supposedly the shooter's truck that rammed into the mormon church

maybe those flags have "Death to Amerikkka!" written on them? lol

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 55 points 1 month ago (1 children)

clearly a variation of the trans flag! pronounjak

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Huh. You'd actually make a lot of money selling Trans colored American flags. Grift 'em from the right who'd buy 'em to destroy them and grift the libs who want to show their patriotism while still showing "solidarity" liberalism to trans rights

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 53 points 1 month ago (2 children)

i'm sorry did someone take a picture of a phone with another phone

[–] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 48 points 1 month ago (2 children)

My favorite thing is videos with multiple layers of app UIs and phone toolbars over it, like a screenshot of a screenshot of a screenshot.

[–] VHS@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

they did surgery on a grape

[–] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago

And you attempt to save it, but hit the recorded save button instead of the real one

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah. Generally I'd say this was a silly way to do it obviously (and that's probably still the case here) but it might not be the worst idea if you don't want anything linking back to the original phone like a photo message in your chat history etc. So long as you scrub the exif/photo meta data it doesn't risk a link with the person whose phone screen the original picture is on.

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Copyrighted media is often watermarked with imperceptible details that are unique to each viewer and can be traced back to prevent leaks or piracy (think how focus groups get a highly visible transparent uuid plastered over their video). No idea if that technology is in use here or if the information loss from the photo of a photo is enough to remove the watermark, however.

the flags are actually upside down to portray hatred of amerikkka frizz-actually

[–] PorkrollPosadist@hexbear.net 41 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What do you know, the police found a shell casing at the scene which reads "No Gods, No Masters!" (making this up, to be abundantly clear)

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 42 points 1 month ago (1 children)

they found an empty ammo box that says "federal" on it, clearly this was a false flag by the antifa deep state installed by joe biden! frothingfash

[–] JohnBrownsBawdy@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

They found a howitzer shell with chapter one of Capital engraved on it.

"More right wing stochastic terrorism coming out of..." squints at teleprompter "...Big White, Michigan"

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 50 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the fact that it's a mormon church makes me wonder if this is some kind of retaliation for kirk

another veteran, a guy named thomas sandford (ny post link)

[–] VHS@hexbear.net 51 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

For the first couple hours after it happened the chuds were of course recklessly speculating that it was a Black guy or Muslim because of the proximity to Detroit. But in reality, military veterans have a long record of violent attacks like this

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 42 points 1 month ago (1 children)

military veterans do these attacks all the time. puts the white pigs at the top in a tricky situation. cant villify veterans or guns. cant do more than say “mental healthcare” while offering no healthcare mental or otherwise

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 33 points 1 month ago

Inside you are two wolves, both are neglected and punished by austerity.

[–] OptimusSubprime@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

@VHS@hexbear.net That won't stop chuds. They'll think he got Sunshine'd and was convinced to do the attack.

Look at their discourse after the C. Kirk shooting and they found out it was a white guy responsible but that he had a transwoman roommate. Look at how quickly the narrative was spun.

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A lot of serial killers have military backgrounds as well. In a way, serial killers are just vets who can't adjust to civilian life where they can't commit war crimes anymore.

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

There is a theory in the more sane areas of true crime that the spike in serial killers in the 70's and 80's is likely directly related to the increase in Korean and Vietnam veterans returning from service. Another common thing was a noted increase in arsons.

[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago

Number two predictor of violence (domestic violence being the number one)

[–] MrPiss@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A Mormon church is a weird target. What are the chances this is chud on chud violence? Mormons are weird and weren't really viewed well a lot of American Christians until recently.

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wasn't the person who shot Charlie Kirk Mormon? It's possible this is some chud's idea of revenge.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago

i thought exmo but i wouldn't expect that to make a difference to someone who would allegedly drive that truck and is interested in reprisal killing
