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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

One of the most chilling things you realize as you grow up and attain even a degree of political and historical awareness, is that genocide is not just something that happens in the past. It doesn't happen because an evil army materializes and does bad things until the good guys save the day. It's something carried out, in the open, with the support or at the very least indifference of people around you. It'll happen on TV, in social media posts, for everyone to see. They will observe it and their reactions will range from apathy to cruel elation. Then they'll turn off their TVs or put away their phones and go shopping.
Maybe the Palestinians will be able to resist enough to deal a massive blow. I know they will fight. I hope for the best. But for now,
Fuck Israel. Fuck Zionists. Fuck America. Fuck the West.
It happened like last week too. The entire population of Nagorno-Karabakh fled the region out of fear of massacres.
wtf how did I miss this. literally Artsakh surrendered and everyone left and not a peep on the news
Because Azerbaijan is a western ally
Guess which country supported them with arms too
Uh? It's all over the news. At least in Europe.
I'm in the US. Haven't seen any media about it until today, everything is Ukraine (and now Palestine)
Nothing about Kosovo either then? There have been attacks from an allegedly Serbia-sponsored militia on a police outpost beyond the border, and now a substantial number of Serbian troops are being stationed around the border. That was just after Azerbaijan made their move and nobody intervened internationally. People are on edge thinking everybody would now start trying to snatch up some "lost territories".
azerbaijan acts with western backing. serbia doesn't
Didn't hear anyone speaking out in favor of Azerbaijan. All they got going is oil & gas.
@informationsecurity.xyz user has head in sand wrt western-backed guvmints. more at 11
They may even make treats out of it, like how southerners used to (CW: death, gore)
