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 URL but also xcancle.org (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). 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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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.

Apparently there are a gaggle of countries that are "Global Partners". Some of these make sense (dogs of the empire such as Australia and Japan), but I have no fucking clue what's up with the rest.

Pakistan was/is due to afghan war. Mongolia for the biolabs that will be used against china & russia in any coming war.

Well,Iraq and Afghanistan are self explanatory

Pakistan sided with the US in the Cold War

Only one that doesn't make sense is Mongolia wtf

Damdin Sükhbaatar rolling in his grave. Which is impressive cause he was cremated.....in 2005 after being exhumed which feels weird. To make room for new monuments apparently. Replaced his mausoleum with one for Genghis Khan. Gotta love ethno-nationalism

Mongolia is very wierd, being somewhat close to the west,but in between the two biggest enemies of the west

And also has a very good relationship with Russia.
