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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

I'm in no mood to read the fucking thing. I might tomorrow. In any case - I had a peek at the final paragraphs. The NYT often puts the best stuff at the very, very end.

Joe Gomes, a research analyst with Noble Capital who monitors immigration detention companies, said that the companies and their investors had been anticipating a huge windfall when Mr. Trump took over. But what is on offer now would dwarf that.

“It reinforces what the general consensus was, that the Trump administration policies here should be a significant boon for both CoreCivic and Geo at least in the short term as they continue to put more people under detention,” Mr. Gomes said. “This would seem to reinforce that the federal government is going to do what they have said — putting money where your mouth is, so to speak.”

Also - and of course - comments are off.

One of the worst things about the Internet is how mods turn off comments the second something spicy happens. What's the point of comments if we're only allowed to comment on the stories where a dog stole a steak off someone's grill and it was cute or something?

Fuck this country. They've so thoroughly squeezed every last bit of humanity out of us and we can't even speak up

So there is absolutely no way that USA isn't going to be Nazi Germany v2.0 right?

[–] SadArtemis@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

Honestly, it's the other way around, Nazi Germany was trying to do a Manifest Destiny v2.0. Burgerland is just returning back to its roots (that it never really left in the first place).
