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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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.
I think trump flipping back and forth publicly is just to delay a ceasefire for the public and to not give Ukraine any of the shit like tomahawk missiles that they want.
I think the trump admin doesn't want to give Ukraine missiles or a ceasefire and instead wants to prolong the war until Ukraine loses.
Thing is that Trump doesn't want to be seen as having lost the war, so he needs to find a way to dump the whole thing on the Europeans.
Europeans would be more than happy for that lmao
Sort of, my impression is that Europeans are terrified that the US will just leave them to hang with angry Russia on their door step. So, they'll be happy to take over Ukraine like the whole deal where they buy the weapons from the US as long as they have a backstop from the US.
