Chanting protests against a country? I’m sweaty, that’s actually a slur 💅

Protest an entire ethnic group and chant hate speech? Well that’s just a slogan I don’t see why you’d be so upset.

Literally us-foreign-policy

Pogrom is when violence. When your dad got beat up in a bar fight? Pogrom.

I love making words meaningless!

Did somebody try to stop you from calling for the genocide of an entire ethnicity? That is actually a pogrom when they say to stop that

Unfortunately, Israel is just an offshoot of the US, so it still reflects back.

Huh?

In most touristy places, Americans are actually desired as the best tourists because of their tipping culture.

When I talk to employees of hotels, bars and restaurants, they are often a little disappointed that I'm not an American.

American tourists are fucking DESPISED in every city in Europe because they are loud as fuck speaking 10x louder than literally everyone else nearby, have absolutely no social sense, and rude to boot.

Businesses might like their money but the population fucking despises them.

I’m just going off my personal experiences when I worked in Banff. Americans were by far the most obnoxious people I met there. But that could just be rich Americans, because that’s the types you get there.

Funniest shit I've read all week, thanks.

[-] Seasonal_Peace@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

American tourists bring their sense of exceptionalism everywhere—loud, entitled, and completely oblivious to anything that isn’t centered around them. They are not liked in central europe. The only thing they know where I live is some kind of propaganda film about this place, but nobody here has accually seen it and nobody cares enough to tell them.

To be clear, this is not applying it to skin color in this conversation but the fact that Israelis calling for a genocide is ok but criticizing Israel is being called a slur

[-] Speaker@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Whiteness is proximity to power. Crackerdom is correlated with some flesh tones, not caused by it.

[-] OrionsMask@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

Get fucked. The world hates you, barbaric Zionist scum.

I heard they beheaded 40 israelis and used the head of one of them as the soccer ball for the match

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
