The reaction of some people to the video (Hasan Piker especially) actually has me wondering a few things, as far as "worst things to see on the internet" it ranks a solid 5/10 in terms of bloodiness, even those ghoulish "Killing in self-defense/heroes shoot robbers" snuff films they allow on Youtube are more visceral and distressing than Kirk getting domed

I can't come to any other conclusion than the realization that the vast majority of people have no fuckin clue what has taken place in Gaza, and by that I mean they can't actually visualize what's happening to Gaza, I think we here on Hexbear because of our access to direct and Arabic news sources have seen things the vast majority of the western left has not

I always wondered why so many "leftist" commentators, podcasters, streamers still have this unspoken hesitation and almost unconscious need to abstract the Gaza genocide, while spaces like TikTok inexplicably have the same serious attitude we here on Hexbear have despite TikTok being filled with right-wingers, and it hit me, people on Hexbear and TikTok HAVE SEEN the videos; the burning people, the kids without faces, the babies hanging dead off rebar. The worst that many of the politics Andies have seen are smoke clouds in the distance, people covered in dust, or the New York Times x-rays

The fuckin commentariat haven't seen shit, they either avoid those videos on purpose or most likely they rely on dry articles, journalistic reports and stats to form an opinion, no wonder when I watch their vids they sound sociopathic to me, I saw a kid missing their face and they're just reading an article, the disconnect is enormous

This whole time I thought most of the left was on the same page concerning the visual knowledge of the atrocities, but if people are fainting over a video of a single gunshot wound, then wtf do people really know about what's happening in Gaza?

No one should ever be shot in the neck while hosting an event titled “Prove Me Wrong” and lecturing people about how guns are good and all gun deaths are worth it. It would be like taking a Gadsden flag to a rally and being trampled to death. That is also not funny.

Spain Will Formalize its Arms Embargo on Israel

Spain continues to lead opposition to Israel among European states. Not a high bar to clear, but credit where it's due to the extent that it is.

There is no way that the shooter is a leftist. When they find the shooter, they are gonna look at his google search history and find stuff like "who is the president?" and "what is politics??"

Having your own Wikipedia article is our generation's equivalent of going to Valhalla. It's the same as the trump shooter, people just want to be the main character.

“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.”

UK fuel tanker took off from Qatar, refueled Israeli fighter jets that were attacking Qatar then landed in Qatar.

/c/news mod: No more news on Charlie Kirk. This is an international news mega.

MEP: I'm about to ruin this mod's whole career.

🇪🇺 The European Parliament rejected a request for a moment of silence to honor slain U.S. conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. The initiative was proposed by right-wing MEP Charlie Weimers, who described Kirk as a ‘loving father and patriot’ and sought to symbolize that free speech cannot be extinguished. However, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola denied the request, explaining that minutes of silence are solely her prerogative and are only held at the opening of plenary sessions, which had already passed earlier in the week. When Weimers tried to yield his remaining speaking time to observe the silence, Vice President Katarina Barley interrupted, triggering protests including desk banging and shouting from right-wing MEPs in the chamber. All requests for a moment of silence were denied, eliciting a strong backlash among some members.

Hope rises that shooter made a clean getaway

I had to look up the dead fascist because, being non USian, I didn't know much about him. For anyone else who's out of the loop, here is some important context: apparently, today the world lost

• an influential propagandist who pushed all kinds of hate and fascist ideology: incited millions of his followers on many platforms to commit racist, anti-LGBTQI+ and genderbased violence and to support such policy, spread deadly misinformation around vaccinations, covid and climate change
• the leader of a large and multipronged reactionary propaganda organization focusing on students with even an arm in the UK, spreading the same fascist ideology
• a powerful politician and ally to Trump who tried to prepare a coup and might have become a contender in the next elections

Did I miss anything important?

Progressive International reporting that the Global Sumud Flotilla, currently en route to break the siege of Gaza, has been struck in a drone attack off the coast of Tunis

Death to the Zionist entity

Link to a video from the Flotilla

The strike has been confirmed by the Global Sumud Flotilla

Absolute insanity, being a vassal with a small opinion is apparently too much for the Zionist cancer. I've talked about this before in a lengthy post before, but Qatar's nominal foreign policy independence and their small tolerance for anti-imperialist opinions within their borders simply can't be tolerated by the bloodthirsty imperialist machine. A random Tunisian man who lives in Doha can freely wear a hoodie with Sinwar's image on it while riding the Doha Metro. This why Qatar gets bombed and not Saudi Arabia or the UAE. This is not about Hamas or assassinating "dangerous terrorists". This is about crushing Qatar's nominal independence.

Political violence is inexcusable. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to vote for concentration camps at the border and more funding for the police, nazis, and zionists.

Al Jazeera are reporting that the US only informed Qatar about the strike when the bombs actually started to fall on Doha. The Gulf States are receiving the Kurdish treatment for the first time, getting fully stabbed in the back by the US when a more important ally needs to go on a new adventure.

And no one is talking about 's terrorist attack on Hamas in Qatar anymore or that birthday card to Epstein. How convenient.

Today in hellworld news:

So today I was working during the night while listening to the Ecuador - Argentina football match for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. I wasn't paying much attention, I didn't really care for the match, I just wanted to listen to something while I drive around and do deliveries.

During half time I usually mute the headphones and tune back in around 15 minutes later, however this time I decided to keep them on because I wanted to hear the half time commentary, but in the mean time the radio station was on the commercial break. Suddenly, I heard a message which went more or less like this:

"If you have a relative living illegally in the United States, you will see them again very soon. Tell them to download [name of the app that I can't remember] so that they may deport themselves safely. I am Kristi Noem, Secretary of Homeland Security in the United States. We can provide economic aid as well as free tickets to your relatives so that they may return legally, if not, we will find them and we will deport them by force. Under President Donald Trump's strong administration, law is respected and our borders are secure."

I was COMPLETELY shocked to hear this on the radio. It's absolute dystopian to hear the US-version of the Gestapo telling random ass argentinians to snitch on THEIR OWN RELATIVES so that they might get themselves DEPORTED. I really couldn't believe what I was hearing, it's absolutely insane.

The message was spoken in very clear castellano, with a strong Porteño accent (Basically the one of Buenos Aires). It couldn't have been Noem, I don't think she can speak fluent castellano. It must have been a local woman hired for the job or AI.

What in the ever loving name of fuck man, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS. Literal nazi propaganda in my fucking radio station. For clarity, it's Radio La Red, it's AM, I listen to them only when there are football matches because I like their commentary... but to hear straight up nazi shit my fucking god.

They're playing pro-Trump propaganda campaigns on argentinian radio, it's just... insane. Also, there aren't a lot of "illegal" argentinians in the US, a lot of them travel to Miami to work in bars and what not, a bunch of them are also educated white men who work in financing and whatnot and live with, I assume, green cards or something, or get work visas. But to have ICE propaganda here? Aimed at who? I think this is a large scale campaign aimed at ALL Latin America, this ad must be playing everywhere... also, who the FUCK approved it?

And I think it's trying to sell the idea of deporting people to Argentina. Parts of milei's government have played with the idea of "setting up a wall in the northern border [with Bolivia and Paraguay]" to "stop the flow of immigration", same messaging as in the US. However immigrants are not a huge part of milei's agenda, but the remnants of whatever will be left after he's gone will surely pick it up.

Jesus christ, this is no longer a meme, it became reality...

Supreme Court lifts restrictions on ‘roving’ ICE raids in Los Angeles

The justices, who apparently divided 6-3 along ideological lines, put on hold a federal district judge’s order that reined in what critics called “roving” raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. That judge had found the tactics were likely unconstitutional because agents were detaining people without probable cause at car washes, bus stops and Home Depot parking lots based on stereotypes.

The high court’s majority offered no explanation for its decision to grant the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to block the district judge’s order. However, Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote separately in support of the decision, saying it was reasonable to briefly question people who meet multiple “common sense” criteria for possible illegal presence — including employment in day labor or construction, and limited English proficiency.

They’re not even bothering to workshop their bullshit explanations anymore

“We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job,” Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote, joined by Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. “Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent.”

If you put this in a book people would say it was too on the nose
