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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --
Delicate diplomacy like screaming at world leaders to tell them they're abdicating their responsibility to leave the world better than they found it and instead incinerating the world for their own profit

The media really is the barometer of how completely unsalvageable the capitalist US Western imperial empire is
As someone who's been to Pakistan which I love but the nation is absolutely abdominal, the humanity you'll see in Pakistan is still better than america. The extreme inequality in Pakistan is different from my home in Scotland so hard to see but it still doesn't hold a candle to skid row in LA. Worst of all? Pakistan just had a democratic leader for the first time in a long time and suprise suprise he gets couped by the Pakistani military which is a strong ally of America and deposed him for a dynastic oligarchs
What the US does in Pakistan is just flexing. Pretty sad.
