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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Lots of news agencies pulling out the term 'limited ground incursion' I really wonder who falls for this shit

Their laughable propagandistic 'special military operation'

Our accurate and reasonable 'limited ground incursion'

Truly an incredible parody we have been given

I hate it.

smuglord Oho you really fall for the russian propaganda of it being a "special military operation"? You hapless fool, I am not so easily deceived.

so-true OMG slay limited ground incursion to defend yourself in another nation that you've bombed to defend yourself.

'Lesser evil' is unironically considered good in mainstream media, so I assume a lot of people are falling for this shit.

It's funny how often they cheer for "lesser evil" like it still isn't evil. Pretty sure Sophie wasn't celebrating her Choice, motherfuckers.

It's exactly what it says on the tin. It's evil. They know it's evil, but they throw up their hands and say, "it is what it is" and engage in evil. The evil has become so banal that it is a matter of course to practice it.

the grown ups in the room making the tough calls for limited incursions

[–] Lovely_sombrero@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

It will be a limited ground incursion, in the sense that Israel will completely blanket the area with bombs before doing anything on the ground. And they can do it forever, since the US will just give them more bombs.
