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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Half the reason kids have the damn food is to kill the main recruiting tool of the black panthers

I would like to mention though, that I was critiqued by (western) MLs and (Western/Southern American) Trotzkists for advocating for kitchens for all and social programs which ensure food security esp. for kids and some parts of the working class. Why? Cause "Marxism is revolutionary and revolution doesn't happen by creating food kitchens and food donation places."

"Marxism is revolutionary and revolution doesn't happen by creating food kitchens and food donation places."

When we were doing mutual aid during the pandemic, the easiest way to get your foot in the door for Marxism was when you were the friendly person handing a crate of food, not the scowling weirdo on the keyboard.

Even the cartels understood this lol. This is why a lot of poor communities support them despite their deranged evilness. At the end of the day, no matter how just and moral your cause is, humans have to eat. If your cause is too high and mighty to feed others, then you can’t complain when they choose the other options
