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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Either way, for the first time in my life, I'm not blaming Elon Musk. This is roadrunner vs. coyote level dumb-shittiery. Straight up running into a poorly painted rock level of incompetence. An entire, "Sure, I know this tunnel wasn't there an hour ago... but I see a tunnel now!" levels of cartoonish idiocy. Child shit. Buying a Meta Quest 3 for the front lines so soldiers could masturbate to 3d porn for morale purposes and to encourage soldiers being sent to the front line would be a better use of money, 100% unironically, make a bigger pro-Russia impact on the war. And I'm talking 1-to-1, not 1-to-100's, based on cost.

oh yes, buying an awful car made by your direct enemy WHILE you're fighting a war with them... and then sending it to the front

putin clearly has to push more people through windows cos this level of idiocy is dangerous
