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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Fascist propaganda is so pervasive it's not surprising to see Brazilians thinking Xi is worse than Amerikkkan presidents.

Who will make better overall choices:

a) Highly educated person with a long career in political leadship. Favours using legal pressure and economic power to resolve international disputes and has a track record of avoiding war.

b) Extremely fragile and unstable buffoon, openly disregarding of international law and treaty obligations. Primary policy objective is to harm major trade partners and allies for to boost ideologically motivated rhetoric at the expense of long term economic performance. Also favours increasing militarisation and has threated two (2) steadfast allies with annexation.

Of course 69% of Israelis support Trump

Xi being ahead in Canada is wild to me, but based on how low both numbers are, it could just be because Trump has been so aggressive toward Canada specifically and their top politicians have made an anti-cult-of-personality around him.
