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.
"Undoubtedly, I have suffered more than the rest of the exiles because nowhere along the Straits of Florida do they give me respite and few are those who understand the paradox of my life," she wrote. "For those in Cuba I am a deserter because I left and denounced the regime in place. For many in Miami I am 'persona non grata' because I am the sister of Fidel and Raul."
Oh sweety did you want to use your familys power to grift and enrich yourself at the expense of the Cuban population? And you are so persecuted just because of your name.
Best I can do is a book deal and a defense stink tank minor speaking role....on occasion. (Idk just seems standard 
stuff.
Anyways what a streak. I congratulate UlyssesT on another successful 
!
mans is going to drop the greatest novel of all time
Dostoevsky is going to fucking exhume himself just to offer Ulysses dome for his superior prose
Didn't know Fidel had a Gusano sister. Fucking wild that siblings can turn out so incredibly different despite the same family upbringings.
Hope she was miserable.
tbf fidel and raul were the outliers.
just emphasizes how based they are
he has a gusano daugther too
Tbh that’s a bit more understandable. Dude had a bunch of children, can’t imagine he was a great father to every one of them lol
But his other siblings defected because he and Raul let the dirty poors into their mansions
The classic example - Diana Mitford and Jessica Mitford. Diana married Oswald Mosley; Jessica was a communist.
Or the Soong sisters
For many in Miami I am 'persona non grata' because I am the sister of Fidel and Raul."
Damn, who would have thought the descendants of plantation owners would be so predisposed towards judging people by their family background?
I hope she died miserable and alone
all you had to do was stay home smh
be me
daughter from rich Cuban family
moved by injustices of our fellow countrymen
fight for a revolution and succeed
brothers turn one of our many mansions into a home for former peasants
that’s unacceptable
join the CIA to undermine my own country
I never knew Fidel and Raúl redistributed their own farm. I knew Fidel was a glorious class traitor but I didn’t realize to that extent.
Unlimited respect.
Rest in piss 
sucks to suck lmao
Damn, so many new toilets lately.
