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 URL but also xcancle.org (or another Nitter instance). 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.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). 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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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.

And now all the normies who were threatening to boycott Disney will sign back up for their slop chutes

Nature is healing

[–] Crucible@hexbear.net 33 points 1 month ago (3 children)

The same day that the new mandolorian and grogu trailer dropped! Wow! What a coincidence!

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Remember baby Yoda?

Of course you do, buy some more shit you dum-dums!

I LOVE GROGU MORE THAN MY NEWBORN SON isaac-pog

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

DiSSney should hire me, I just came up with Grogurt, a go-gurt type snack themed on grogu. I'll take my $250000 cheque please.

Edit: it's a thing already??? I'm sad and disappointed

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago

It looks like shit. Sure as hell wont be worth movie prices, not that I would have gone either wy

[–] LeninWalksTheEarth@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

[–] PurrLure@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago

Finally, after several long days my snout can descend into the rat feces! you-hear-about-video-games

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I only pirate now, I am a festering blight eating away at black heart of modern media.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

Don't worry, I'd assume most of us do too. Media subscriptions are expensive

[–] CeliacMcCarthy@hexbear.net 63 points 1 month ago (1 children)

trump rolls worst fascist cultural purge ever, asked to leave

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 52 points 1 month ago (1 children)

American treatlerites continue their holy war for treats, instead of solidarity

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Libs: Genocide happening, I sleep, but when their treats are threatened, that's when the gloves come off!

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

50% believe pisrael perpetrating genocide, but somehow that intersection with disney viewership (or any other bds target) is 0%. Very cool, solidarity from seppos as stellar as ever

[–] redchert@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Excuse me but they did their part by saying that they oppose genocide and really really believing it. They even reposted a hot take on twitter!

They are the resistance and they earned their reprieve by watching kimmel do a hecking clapback against the orange orangutan or something.

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago

They did it by cancelling their Disney+ subscriptions but can bother with BDS.

[–] StillNoLeftLeft@hexbear.net 52 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's both hilarious and depressing to witness all the libs and self-proclaimed leftists celebrate and pat themselves on the back on Mastodon right now. Some are even posting how Disney will still not get them back, because they have now seen their true colours. I mean, interesting red line. I sure thought that would have come sooner.

Wow, amazing activism. Activism that achieved to get the status quo back. Great.

Voting with the wallet, got Jimmy Kimmel. Great success.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

Amazing how the focus is on a wealthy media personality who, even if he were fired, would still be able to lead a life of luxury unimaginable to the vast majority of people, and not on the scores of minimum wage workers who have had their livelihoods destroyed for not sieg-heiling

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 44 points 1 month ago

Thank goodness, now I can go back to being upset that this unfunny joker has a job

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 43 points 1 month ago

and now every lib renews their harry potter subscription.

We can go back to brunch!

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 37 points 1 month ago

Damn this sucks, nothing ever happens

[–] LeninWalksTheEarth@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago

FUCK THIS DEAD FASCIST PODCASTER. HOLY FUCK.

They sure do talk about how great he was, but they never play any of his videos or any audio. Weird huh?

[–] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Rustled as they may be, the twin Jimmies stand tall for another day

[–] Yuritopiaposadism@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

Trump can't even do a proper purge.

[–] 9to5@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Time for Jimmy to become the Avenging Son

[–] graymess@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

He's gonna apologize to Kirk's ghost on air, isn't he?

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This is repubs testing to see how far they can go. Colbert is still out. They'll keep poking and proding locally. Around the globe? Impunity and genocide

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

OK, but artists pulling out of Lilith Fair in protest of Disney suspending the former co-host of The Man Show is a top-tier bit that was not on my hellworld bingo card

[–] Dirt_Possum@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Tangential, but what is the consensus around here about Jimmy Kimmel? Is he just the typical vapid liberal host or is he more insidious than that? I know nothing about him other than that he was on that misogynist The Man Show a long time ago and that the few times I tried to watch him, he was not even a little bit amusing, just dull and totally lacking charisma. But my lib dad who also never watched him before now thinks he's this great comedian who speaks truth to power. 🙄

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

he's not funny and did blackface.

[–] Sport_Owl@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

I dont know why he thought a Karl Malone impression would be wanted or ever asked for

[–] KillSlaveOwners@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He brought the hardcore band “Knocked Loose” on live television which was pretty fun, outside of that I have no opinions.

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Oh shit! I forgot that was on his show. Bryan dropping a pig squeal on national television was so fucking funny.

i will never respect anyone who's watched enough late night tv to form an opinion on him

[–] Homer_Simpson@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

WE DID IT HEXBEAR!!

[–] Sport_Owl@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Remember: dont sit so close to the tv
