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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Something tells me she isn’t going to be quite the media darling she was during this Trump administration.

Rashida Tlaib has proven to be more consistently based with the only major blemish being her pushing the Uyghur genocide bullshit along with Ilhan Omar.

Do you disagree?

It's too late for you, AOC, you're already the Zionist boogeyman, and nothing you can do will change that. Literally nothing you could do would change that reputation, hell, you could even call for a congressional declaration of war against Israel, and you'd still just be seen as "antisemitic", and the needle wouldn't shift in the slightest. They already used their strongest card against you, you should just go wild with being anti-Israel.

smuglord: You don't understand. We have to vote for this to gain the political currency to vote for the ceasefire.

[–] grendahlgrendahlgen@hexbear.net 15 points 7 hours ago

The notion of "political capital/currency" is a citations-needed episode waiting to happen (if they didn't do it already).

ceasefire fails because the US is actually controlled by nazis

calling out the genocide is now illegal so we can't protest this

Another liberalism W!

What actually counts as a loss to these ghouls? omori-miserable

Socialists/communists, China, also Russia for some reason even though they're capitalists, basically any country not being exploited

Russia has the audacity to not be open to Western corporate profit seeking, they dare to have their own domestic industry and keep the profits for Russian nationals.

So they get called oligarchs, whereas Musk can be the richest man on Earth and in the government and he's not

[–] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 13 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Russian oligarchs ❌

Oligarchs from the Internstional State of Wealth ✅

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

If they're not from the Olig region of Russia they're just sparkling billionaires
