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 in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . 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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

No child left alive mission-accomplished

The sooner China uplifts the developing world to make oil irrelevant the better. They're the ones doing the actual Green New Deal. Most people in the US have no damned clue how far behind we are and it is because of this endless war bullshit.

Like really show and tell people what China has been doing - they are amazingly ignorant, they only hear Red Scare stuff kril-scream Which I thought we as a country got the heck over with 30 years ago.

xi-plz we yearn for freedom.

if the children of American liberals were suddenly bombed they would be like "WHAT? WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM?"

Reading that headline as someone who is worried about paying this month's bills is making me lose it

The empire certainly cares more in participating in fascist mass killings of an entire group of people than giving the slightest thought about its own people.

Just can't stop being complicit in genocide

Just the military industrial complex doing its thing. You know, ruining humanity and the planet.

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for. thee that one of thy members should perish, and. not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

A commentry on America's military industrial complex, to the rest of itself...

Phew, thought for a second there that the US might take a moment's respite from being a disgusting murderous empire.

Fuck healthcare at this point, just stop it, please.

[–] OprahsedCreature@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

USA: "Why not continue and fuck your healthcare?"

Another 3.5 billion of taxpayer money into the hands of the MIC. Rinse and repeat.

Maybe the US is just getting scammed by Israel? Like Israel is claiming to be the UN tax agency, and it is demanding to be paid in Raytheon gift cards.

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Israel is the US' beloved imperial attack dog, their primary mechanism of destabilising the middle east toward whatever ends they need. It's expensive but it seems most times the US doesn't even bother sending their best gear over, lol.
