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.

How the fuck is it me siding with zionists by saying hey maybe we shouldn't make an emoji out of a slogan with "Curse upon the jews"?
Again what the fuck is wrong with you?
Could you show me where I said that?
Because I showed you quite clearly where your argument, the things you actually said, reinforce the understanding that this is a space for predominantly white American/European users, by the very assumption that "those people are not the ones reading this."
I think you are misreading what I said. Zionists are not the ones reading this. If there are any here they get banned pretty fast. The only people that would be seeing for example the emoji another user requested, are not the people you are talking about. Why do you keep talking past my actual point?
You immediately jumped to cussing me out with "Again what the fuck is wrong with you?" and are now saying I "keep" talking past your point, making me think you didn't bother to read that I am a different person and that I hadn't previously engaged with you on this thread.
As for misreading you, I suppose I did if that is what you were trying to say, though I will clarify that hello_hello said you were doing "polite finger wagging to a people who have suffered genocide" which you quoted and responded "those people are not the ones reading this," so I would say that your writing is unclear as that sequence to me is pretty clearly you saying that the people who have suffered genocide are not the ones reading this.
I am also not "talking past" your point. I disagree with your point and simply politely invited you to consider things from a less American-centric perspective. You responded with typical American hostility though, because Americans are never able to see past their own perspective and respond to any and all criticism with hostility and self-righteous indignation.
Good luck with that.
You're being plenty hostile throughout the thread. I thought you hated victim acts? Everything is incredulity and shut-up lines and misrepresentation.
Disagreeing with Americans is hostility and a "victim act." Classic.
Sorry, she has not once been hostile, I'm reading her posts and they show much more restraint that I'm capable of reading this shit. Meanwhile other people have hair trigger jumped to "fuck you" and "fuck off" at people who understand the context better than they do

Neither of us are from that region I just don't see what is productive about getting defensive of people criticizing that one line of that slogan.
