Over the past year or so I've seen "chud" cross over from Chapo-adjacent online leftist spaces to general internet lingo. In the process it seems like the meaning has shifted though. To me it was a catch-all term for dumb and buffoonish right-wingers and fascists in general

It seems in non-leftist usage chud is just the school shooter wojak and basically means "weird ugly unemployed redditor with mass murder fantasies and implied autism." The chud is not worthy of scorn because of his far-right politics, but because he is cringe. The original political context of the word has been stripped and replaced by ableism

Are they gonna take large adult son away from us next

Believe in yourself and your ability to figure out surgery. It's just the opposite of cooking dinner. Don't let social anxiety hold you back.

A message from one of the four action takers who occupied the roof of Elbit Systems in Leicester today - they didn't just occupy it: they successfully abseiled into the clean room and dismantled the machinery inside. Their action proves ordinary people can halt the production of genocidal weaponry being built in our cities. Direct action is the only way to stop the Zionist war machine - and shut it down for good, one factory at a time. As the action taker here says: "If you're watching this and you're thinking 'This can't be me, I can't do this', I didn't think at first I would be capable of this, but you'll be surprised at how much you can achieve and how much you can do if you just have faith in yourself..." Take the power back into your own hands. Join a direct action training: directactiontraining.org or hit the link in the bio.

BREAKING: 'People Against Genocide' have abseiled through the roof of Elbit's Israeli drone factory in Leicester. Once they descended, they began to break through the clean room used to assemble necessary components for Israeli military drones. Contaminating a clean room can put it out of use for several months.

Like genuine glazing of this man. All I know is that he was a French nationalist and I think liking that is suspicious.

We fucking did it lesgooooooooo!!!!

Hexbear has successfully raised over $2000 for Palestinian fundraisers in the span of just 3 weeks! First of all, I want to profusely thank @CARCOSA@hexbear.net for his massive contributions in this, it wouldn't have been possible without our gorgeous and, honestly, grossly incandescent mods!

Also huge thanks to @Soliman_ayman@hexbear.net, @mahmoud@hexbear.net and @MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net for the help expanding and curating the donations list, as well as the structure of the fundraiser. Seriously, you're awesome and we all love you over here.

The contributions made by all the anonymous users, as well as (in no particular order) @MLRL_Commie@hexbear.net, @Acute_Engles@hexbear.net, @BeanisBrain@hexbear.net, @lapis@hexbear.net and @P1d40n3@hexbear.net who generously donated very significant amounts. Fucking awesome all of you, seriously, thank you from the bottom of my heart

Huge thanks funnily enough to @RedNajm@hexbear.net for their Slop post of axis.world reacting to the lemmyverse news of Hexbear's donation drive. What better way to give engagement and visibility in hexbear to a fundraiser than to get "dunking on the libs" involved! This last push was all we needed to reach the donation goals and huge thanks to all my PPB enjoyers for your attitude and involvement.

And finally, thanks to the entire hexbear community for cultivating such a wonderful space. I know we have struggle sessions from time to time and we can be a bit irony-poisoned, but at the end of the day I simply don't know of any other space, either online or IRL, where people can have such honest discussion and posting with so few brainworms surrounding everything. I truly feel like we have something special here.

The fundraiser being finished just means I can't continue to match the donations, but that doesn't mean donations must stop. On the contrary, the people of Palestine need us as much as ever, and we should all strive to relieve their burdens to the extent of our possibilities. I'm leaving the donation links here so that we can keep all donating:

The confluence of societal and governmental factors leading to these outcomes is an irredeemable tragedy. Nobody gives a fuck about education and the consequences are accelerating
