Obama is always present to squash anything good in the world. He always shows up to destroy anything left of center

El Sayyed is literally a liberal, has never claimed to be anything else. In fact he’s publicly declared he’s not a socialist or democratic socialist iirc.

Nobody ever asks what gives obama the right to stick his nose into any of this shit but strangely there's always a phone call with obama whenever someone to the left of Hitler starts winning elections

Unfortunately he's still very popular with libs. I'm not sure I understand why, since he did nothing but lie to, and gaslight them.

Could you remove the word "cuck" in this post?

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 7 points 2 hours ago

Sure, we can't say that anymore?

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 7 points 2 hours ago

Yes. Some people consider it misogynistic or just reactionary in general.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 3 points 1 hour ago

Got it, will do.

Stay away Obama! Go spend your days in your brutalist Dr. Evil buttplug museum.

Uhh, let me be clear, In this clip, you can clearly see Hassan Piker reach for something just before his dog yelps.

obama-prism if you can't beat 'em, borg 'em

Just more proof these kinds of candidates are just to give an illusion of hope and continue complacency.

No, you don’t understand, the correct thing to do is to move the blue genocide party left. Although there isn’t a single blue state in the USA with universal health care, this will somehow result in me getting health care.

The radical centrist Obama who waged wars for the neoliberal empire

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.
