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Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.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

Time for both sides to cozy up to his corpse under the guise of civility.

He must have accidentally knocked his phylactery over while dusting it.

What great news to wake up to on my day off

[โ€“] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 13 points 1 week ago

Thank you for the best news so far this morning!

[โ€“] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wtf I thought he was way older than 84

[โ€“] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

he looked 80 when he was 50. iirc he was an alcoholic

[โ€“] Zuzak@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

Hell yeah, finally spongebob-party

[โ€“] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

That's so sad that Dick Chiney died aged 84. He shouldve died at least 40 years earlier.

[โ€“] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

what about the other dick cheney he kept in the man-sized safe all those years?

[โ€“] plinky@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

another big-l to non-violence

[โ€“] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

He just died? Wow. I didn't know that. You're telling me that for the first time

What can you say he led an amazing life

duhduh duh duh duh

[โ€“] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

Well, sucks to be him.

Or to use past tense now that he is dead: it sucked that he was him.

[โ€“] William_Nilliam@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

pepe-silvia He sacrificed himself to distract us

[โ€“] Socialism_Is_The_Alternative@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He lived just long enough to watch the BRICS massively overtake the Western imperialist G7 in GDP (PPP)... and then, he croaked.

Seeing the American Century of Humiliation take off was the final nail that led him towards his coffin.

I'm sure he's looking up at us right now

Somebody please call and check on Kamala to see how she's taking the news. I know she loved the Cheneys very much.

Good thing, i had 50 litres of piss in stock and a new piss sink just opened

Dick is Stiff and Cold

[โ€“] Antiwork@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

The most evil person throughout my life is dead. Thank fucking goodness. The same way most of yall felt about Henry Kissinger is how Ive felt about Cheney.
