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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

We have absolutely being running supplies and weapons to Israel. We have absolutely been providing intelligence and targeting for Israel. We have absolutely been helping Israel political and military figures avoid potential arrest or legal complications via British military flights. There's been on the ground reporting of sheepdipped British military on the ground in Gaza and the West Bank as well as evidence indicating SAS operations.

We're not just provided material support to this genocide, we're active participants and I suspect that people will continue finding just how much that's true over the coming decades. For now of course, our politicians will just continue to classify everything, bring terror charges against and silence journalists who look into it, and mumble nonsense qualifiers in public that hint at respecting international law like those fucking chain Facebook post qualifiers that sovereign citizens and QAnon love so much.

The word "barbarian" comes from Romans making fun of Northern Europeans' speech. The Romans thought they all sounded like they were just shouting "Bar! Bar! Bar! Baaaaarrrr!" at each other.

It's like if that "removed Ling Long" YouTube monstrosity from a decade ago became the word we use for foreigners 2,000 years from now.
