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:
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
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.
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
Kennedy said Trump had the most "unhinged" diet of the administration officials.
"The interesting thing about the president is that he eats really bad food, which is McDonald's, and, you know, candy and Diet Coke. He drinks Diet Coke at all times," Kennedy said. "He has the constitution of a deity. I don't know how he's alive, but he is."
The health secretary was also open about his dietary supplement routine — but he warned that he shouldn’t be seen as a pinnacle for what others should take. In response to Miller's question, Kennedy said he takes Vitamin D, quercetin, zinc, magnesium, Vitamin C and “a bunch of other stuff.” How does he choose which supplements to take? In a relatable way — and one that’s not necessarily medically advised. “My method is I read an article about something, you know, and I get convinced that, oh, I gotta have this stuff,” he said. “And then I get it and then six months later I’m still taking it. I don’t remember what the article said. So, I end up with a big crate of vitamins that I’m taking, and I don’t even know why.”

This is the guy in charge of our entire health system
Isn't it awesome? He's got the medical background of social media obsessed parents

Our health system is a bunch of VCs funding startups trying to jam more AI into it, even if it has to be perpendicular to the other AIs. This is hot on the heels of the same thing with blockchain. I think the big crate fits.
absolutely incredible stuff
Imagine taking vitamin C instead of just eating a raw orange or something.
Vitamin C is abundant in leafy greens too. Like, it's so difficult to have a vitty C shortage that scurvy was completely unknown in all human records until we started making long voyages without fresh vegetables
Well my guinea pigs need extra vitamin c from a lil chewable according to my vet. So what, are you calling my guinea pigs worthless or something??? /s
Vitamin C degrades too easily. Just by shaking an orange a little too much you destroy most of its vit C.
That's really interesting. Would orange juice have any left then?
Juicing it destroys most of the vit C.
This is astonishingly funny.
This wouldn't even work in an onion article because the complete absence of subtlety would be too jarring.
You could replace every pill in this man's cabinet with jellybeans and improve his health by 60% overnight
new site tagline
You know it's bad when you disgust even Lord Nurgle.
RFK Jr: IDK how Trump is alive with the diet he has.
Also RFK Jr: Anyway, here is this food pyramid with red meat as its basis.
If it works for the president it will work for your loony ass, now eat the fucking meat loaf!
Bro your followers literally think a milkshake of beef tallow and ivermectin will cure cancer.
Well, that didn't work out for the dilbert guy
but it worked out for the rest of us 
That's bc we didn't learn hypnosis like the dilbert guy.
he hypnotized the cells in his prostate something fierce
Telling you he just didn't take enough, 5 or 6 more hero doses of 2,000ccs beef tallow and ivermectin would have saved him.
TALLOW N THE HORSE PASTE KEEP THE DOCTOR AWAY. BUT IT IS NOT FOR CHILDREN. MAX CONSUMPTION NEEDED 24/7. HE WAS NOT WORTHY.
fuckin die, both of you. Wish his dad was assassinated before he was born.
Trump will live to be 100 and the preservatives will ensure his body never rots.
They'll be studying his body in a thousand years like the Egyptian mummies.
They can skip the embalming and just chuck him under some glass after he croaks
He'll be kept under a heat lamp with a side of fries.
They'll have to change the fries out periodically like the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier
I’m half his age and I have no doubt he’ll outlast me
He will become our reality's first living ghoul
That's what happens when you have access to the best healthcare on the planet.
Imagine being a secret service agent and you get assigned to the team that goes to McDonald's every day to watch trump's food get made and ensure it's not tampered with. Even the secret service is doing Uber eats in this economy.
When was the last time he even had warm fries? You know hes not going with them to get it, its always delivered. That stuff isn't even mid and he always gets luke warm limp fries lmao
Surprised he didn't try to get a maccas installed in the whitehouse at some point.
Fucking golden arches logo over the front entrance of the whitehouse
I know I'm a whopping 4 days late to this, but I always assumed the White House had frozen ingredients delivered from a McDonald's warehouse, were inspected on site, and then prepared by a White House chef (with fast food equipment purchased just for our big beautiful slop boy) and put in the shitty cardboard and logo'd paper baggie fresh for in house delivery.
But when it's bulk fast food for other people? Yeah I bet they get the coldest saddest food possible. 
Because these fucking old pricks just refuse to die
Same reason Kissinger made it to 100 and why Cheney lived so long after all his heart issues.
Shit I don't know RFK is alive. He got the diet of a mealworm
Spider Men pointing at other Spider Men meme

Do I believe a guy who is categorically wrong about everything he says, or the longevity of a guy who needs a PR doctor to pretend he's the pinnacle of health?
