A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Why do people watch this? It's fucking Jerry Springer for Nazis.

My grand-dad watched it. My Dad watches it. They’re both respectable, smart, ethical people, nothing like a MAGA diehard you’d imagine.

It’s like freaking cocaine.

It’s like TikTok/YT Shorts I suppose? Or clickbait that get so upvoted on Lemmy. Its meticulously designed to be addictive and provocative, all while appealing to values one holds and subtly sliding them.
