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:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
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.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.

Fuck off that isn't what I or anyone else is doing. Jewish people did also suffer genocide, doesn't excuse what Israel does but it also doesn't excuse repeating "Curse on the Jews" I'm not even Jewish but it's obviously not cool fuck off.
How do you feel about "A curse upon the christians" said by the people oppressed by christian supremacism, given the history of christian genocide in Turkey (Armenian, devshirme)?
I feel the same fucking way because it isn't Jewish or Christian supremacism it's white supremacism in all of these cases.
It's not arab christians oppressing anyone it's euros, same with Israelis, almost all of them are European, fucking Netanyahu was born in Philadelphia and calling it Jewish supremacism is just off putting to me because it is actually an offshoot of white supremacism and trying to deliniate the two especially when it's fuckin white europeans doing it is only to absolve themselves to make it some unique thing. It's still just cracker settler colonialism you don't have to make it uniquely Jewish, that is Nazi shit.
Also your example of genocide in turkey like wtf are you talking about Turkey genocided Christian Armenians...
I understand that, but if someone posts a fairly common saying like "there is no hate like christian love", "Christianity doesnt get enough hate for it's role in x" or "Pictured: most compassionate christians" under a post detailing hate crimes by christians, I'm not gonna go "That's not real christianity". I should be permabanned if I ever do something like that. That's what I think 3rdWorldCommieCat meant by "politeness finger wagging".
The fact that over half of the holocaust victims were jewish is as relevant to the conversation as the armenian genocide is to a conversation about christian supremacism (which was the parallel I was trying to draw).
Which, as far as I can tell, no one is doing. Certainly not 3rdWorldCommieCat who wrote
These are good points but there have absolutely been instances of people doing what I observed in my comment above, though they usually get quickly removed by mods, which is good. It's just something we should be vigilant about because it's the exact same way Nazis operated historically, by twisting Marxist rhetoric into an avenue for real bad shit and we should always take an internationalist perspective as foundation of our analysis.
Just yesterday I saw someone post some ZOG "analysis" that has since been removed. I'm sure you can find it in the modlog.
