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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

The far right isnt a radical party?
No because western Europe and Amerikkka are fascist as fuck. Radical would be outside the norm. But please accuse me of pedantry again.
Are you claiming that all "democratic" nations are inherently fascist nations at any point of their economic/political development?
Did I say all? No I was pretty specific.
And what differentiates a fascist western "democracy" from a non fascist democracy.
Dictatorship of a different class? This is fundamental Marxist theory, states are a dictatorship of one of several classes. You can't have democracy for the proletariat (vast majority of people) in a state that is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie (small, powerful minority). Note: "dictatorship" of a class means that a state is organized to advance the interests of that class, not "dictatorship" as in "opposite to democracy" or "governed by one person".
Therefore, even in principle liberal "democracies" cannot be democratic. It's not a decay of democracy, it's an impossibility for it to have ever existed in those cases.
