Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. 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.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.

this is a great example of why it is never wrong to cut your family (or indeed, anyone) right the fuck out of your life for their beliefs

former father in law who disapproves her marriage

Might as well ask some randos online

It must be so easy for these fuckers, "journalists", to do this shit. Every CHUD wants their five minutes of fame and would be easy to interview, actually researching context of a relationship and whether someone you are interviewing is actually relevant to the situation. It can just be "They hated me and stopped speaking to me a decade ago after I called them a slur." and they can act like they were closer to them than anyone else on the planet because it serves their overlord's goals. That boot must be delicious.

holy fucking shit... imagine having that piece of shit in your life

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And for what, slavish devotion to Trump who would sooner see your ass dead too than say "good job"?

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 35 points 1 day ago (2 children)

All chuds in our lives think this about us.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Y'know it's funny you mention that, I'm about to get weird here, but last night I had a thought while I was skimming the ufo subreddits just to keep tabs on things. Anyway a thought came across my mind, what if aliens/uaps are things manifested from the evil in the world, and these chuds are the kind of demons people talked about in the bible? Granted I really don't believe that shit, I'm pretty much agnostic most days, and atheist when I really start hating america, but, you never know I guess. What if this is hell? thonk

I'm an American living abroad and in all honesty I think I would greatly struggle dating an American because of crazy relatives like this. I could not deal with American in-laws in my life; I left for a reason.

i wish a silencer would break the father-in-law

Imagine loving a fictional character more than your own daughter.

It's because she was gay, that's why he doesn't resent the piglet.

Imagine if she was one of those 'trad wives' the Trump loving maga crowd fantasie over

What a cunt 

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 39 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah I low-key picked up he was okay with her death because she's lgbtq.

[–] Muinteoir_Saoirse@hexbear.net 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

In those early interviews after the fact he was saying his grandson doesn't have anyone in his life now and he was going to fly and get him. But the kid has another mom. There's about to be a very evil custody battle here.

Feds are going to indict the other mom, Renee's wife. Bunch of lib lawyers resigned because they refused to do it, and they will be replaced by hogs who will

Exodus 20:13 ESV

“You shall not murder.

Leviticus 24:17 ESV

“Whoever takes a human life shall surely be put to death.

1 John 3:12 ESV

We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother's righteous.

Matthew 10:28 ESV

And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Proverbs 6:16-19 ESV

There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

Exodus 23:7 ESV

Keep far from a false charge, and do not kill the innocent and righteous, for I will not acquit the wicked.

Leviticus 19:33-34 ESV

Deuteronomy 27:19 ESV

“‘Cursed be anyone who perverts the justice due to the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

Malachi 3:5 ESV

“Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts.

Psalm 82:3-4 ESV

Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked

Isaiah 1:17 ESV

Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow's cause

Genesis 9:5-6 ESV

And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.

Oops all damnation!

Lol the Bible loves murder tho, god commands people to murder all the time so I guess if it's good enough for god it's good enough for this loser

No you see it’s not murder if morshupls it WAS JUST A PRANK you definitely weren’t going to murder your son until god admitted at the last second they were just putting you on. JUST A PRANK ron-sugar-man

[–] MayoPete@hexbear.net 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Fucking Christians and their "God has a plan" bullshit I keep hearing around me. No, there's no plan! Get off your ass and DO something! Stop using your book as an excuse to do nothing 🤬😤😡

if this guy was going to "do anything" it would be murder his daughter-in-law himself, as he clearly approves of the murder and blames her for being lesbian

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

It's also not biblical, just an American evangelical platitude

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 26 points 1 day ago

Pig needs the Bible fired directly into his face at high velocity

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 22 points 1 day ago
