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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

it's an effective strategy for pissing people off

Good. The worst case scenario is the contractions tighten, and your average liberal decides to take the mask off, we all get to stop pretending that people like Bill Maher are functionally any different than Ben Shapiro, And along the way perhaps a couple wine moms are exposed to the brutality that they tactly endorse.

It's very easy for your average liberal to ignore the horror and misery that they inflict on the rest of the world, I fully endorse any plan that shoves their nose in the messes that they make. Your average Starbucks drinking wine mom needs to see children writhing in pain with both their arms blown off by a US munition. They need to see toddlers with gunshot wounds to the head. They need to see a young child screaming in grief and clutching the lifeless body of their father. Because CNN will not show them this. And until they see it, the pain that they inflict on the world is simply theoretical. Something for pundit to pontificate about, and for propagandists to pretend is justified, 45,000 dead nazi Jihadists dedicated to committing a second Holocaust, not mothers and children, newborns and the elderly, hundreds of thousands of innocent people, victims of a genocide funded and supported by the American taxpayer.
