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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Looks like somebody forgot the number one rule of political science:

Rule number one: The west, especially its ringleader Amerikkka can do whatever it wants.

Even for Western propaganda this is the mother of all nothingburgers. China performed routine wargames in its own territorial waters and sailed a carrier group within 100 miles of its own mainland, and somehow this is worth an article on.

At least they're not claiming the CPC violated Taiwan's airspace by flying over their own landmass again.

I'm always dumbfounded when I see American news about stuff happening in places with other countries' names on the damn things. "US Navy in standoff with Chinese ship in South China Sea." I know obviously countries don't own something just because of names, but like be serious. The US would carpet bomb anyone who parked a ship five miles off the coast of Hawaii.
