Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. 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.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.

Incredible how we are on a thread detailing the murder of an innocent baby girl with her grandfather and all you can think about is how a Jewish person's feelings might be hurt.

oh go fuck yourself im so serious

The slogan is from 2003 and is no longer primarily used today (instead being superseded by "America is the mother of all terrorism"), you had over 20 years to say "hey what the fuck" but specifically it had to be right now. The Sarkha was being posted during the ongoing genocide of Palestine after the Al Aqsa flood with the same translation.

If I didn't even provide a translation would you even have noticed? Maybe I should have censored the translation and said "Curse upon the Jews of Israel" and not have presented Yemeni victimization as it was back then.

No, I wouldnt have noticed because don't read Arabic, congrats, you got me, what point are you trying to prove? Pretending that anti-semitism doesn't go hand-in-hand with fascism and colonialism is ridiculous.

Do you seriously think I don't care about the people America massacres because they're muslim? Do I need to perform my disgust so everyone knows I think this is terrible? Fucking obviously I'm horrified. But "curse upon the Jews" isn't anticolonial or anti-fascist, and its not an analysis any communist should ever agree with.

Pretending that anti-semitism doesn't go hand-in-hand with fascism and colonialism is ridiculous

But the Zionist entity is very specifically a fascist, colonial, and Jewish supremacist ethnostate. Is anti-Semitism truly the core of Jewish supremacy? Does it go hand-in-hand? Sure, we see quite often how fuelling anti-Semitism abroad is a tactic for inspiring support of the Zionist project in Occupied Palestine, but is it correct to say that the Jewish supremacist ethnostate is itself, within its own self-conception, anti-Semitic? And is that anti-Semitism a key feature and more important to analyze than the predominant ideological basis of its existence: fascist, colonial, Jewish supremacy?

because from your sentence here, it seems like you are saying that by virtue of their purported anti-Semitism, the victims of the Zionist project are walking hand-in-hand with fascism and colonialism, rather being subjected to it at the hands of the very fascist and colonial Jewish supremacist ethnostate.

I am stressing that the Zionist project is Jewish supremacist because it is a core component of the entity's identity and ultimate goal, and a key piece of understanding why that sentiment exists in this outcry.

Yeah but we have people in this thread asking for an emoji of it. That is a problem.
