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.

I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They don’t have what it takes, and they never did! They’ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren’t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some “free” and cheap publicity. Now they think they get some “clicks” because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody’s talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA — Or I wouldn’t have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE. MAGA agrees with me, and just gave CNN a 100% Approval Rating of “TRUMP,” not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn’t even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he’s never been the same — Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist! Or Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, “Only Rosie O’Donnell,” question, or “Crazy” Candace Owens, who accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit. Actually, to me, the First Lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it’s not even close! Or Bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things, and lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was a hoax. These so-called “pundits” are LOSERS, and they always will be! Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left “News” Organizations, are “hailing” them, and giving them “positive” press for the first time in their lives. They’re not “MAGA,” they’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA. As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don’t return their calls because I’m too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go “nasty,” just like Marjorie “Traitor” Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country. MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE “HOTTEST” COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I don't have links, but I saw that the hogs are mad about this one, and even Alex Jones was lamenting how far Trump has fallen in a clip he posted lol

It's extremely over for MAGA, just like (and because) it's over for US aggression and presence in the Persian Gulf.

Synthesis? The US will be electing unlimited Graham Platners for the next 6 years or so.

Ooh you silver tongued wordsmith. I love it.

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 26 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Holy shit this is Trump spinning gold.

Bringing up the Candace/First Lady of France thing is a wildly obscure pull, and then doubling down with 'She looks better than you anyway.'

Fucking Classic Donny.

Marjorie "Traitor" Brown

Lol, he doesn't even remember Marjorie's name.

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago

He thinks calling her brown rather than green is a clever insult. He has truly lost whatever juice he may have once had.

Yeah, he usually explains it, because that's how you know it's a good joke - when you have to explain it.

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago

bro, he fucking ruined it. just leave the punchline unexplained and imply that she's shit.

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's so funny because Alex Jones spent a fucking decade being an absolute sycophant and I can't imagine what softball criticism he gave to Trump to be put on blast like this.

They had a huge advantage starting out

[–] dead@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago (2 children)

This feels like a show because I suspect that all the people he named are feds. Megyn Kelly said that Epstein is not a pedophile, ffs. He's trying to the legitimize the controlled opposition.

Trump knows that he's unpopular and he's old as fuck, so he's naming certain acceptable "enemies" that he will cede power to. Israel is unpopular. War is unpopular. Democrats are refusing to take any position against Israel or endless wars. So now these populist fascists can take the reigns.

[–] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago

This is too smart and forward thinking for a sundowning Trump

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago

I can believe that. This whole thing is way too specific, almost feels like some ChatGPT of a classic Trump tweet.

[–] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago

sir this is a wendy's

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 20 points 3 days ago

I'm convinced that "thank you for your attention to this matter" is a staffer sign off and that the real Trump tweets all don't have it.

[–] Dort_Owl@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I wonder if they're getting chatgpt to write these

[–] fox@hexbear.net 33 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Lotta em dashes, rule of 3, and compare-contrast. I'd clock it as an llm

[–] cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Right. Trump has an iPhone, and I know how to make em dashes on an iPhone, maybe you do, but most likely, Trump doesn’t. Why would he?

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago

"Mr. President - what do you think of em dashes?"

"I dunno. But Barron really likes him. He says 'M Dashes is the best rapper.' "

We are just th extras to his Truman Show.

[–] Torenico@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Alright apart from all the unreadable shit that this very trumpian post has I think that picking a fight with fucking TUCKER CARLSON of all people is a massive mistake that could cost Trump well.. everything.

Carlson is on the rise, leaving FOX was very wise and he's on his way to become the new man for the far right. He's articulate, can craft arguments and is very good at reading where the society stands in certain topics like "israel" for example. He's very dangerous and Trump is playing with fire lmao, even though they never got along (in fact they hated each other in private or so I remember hearing)

Not like a give a shit anyways, Carlson or not the US is going down regardless because the damage is huge and cannot be undone. But it goes to show that Trump 2.0 is very wild and stupid.

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

leaving FOX was very wise

Getting fired for costing Fox hundreds of millions in a lawsuit.

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago

Is he dying? Like actively and rapidly?

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago

Nunber one sponsornof terrorism having a nuclear weapon.

  1. Bin Laden was shielded by the Pakistani Military.

  2. projection

so-far Every accusation is a confession.

This is written from a desperate unconfident tone. He is losing control of MAGA and on the defense. pathetic

this one to me is so specific about certain points relative to his recent coherency that i feel like steven miller might have written it.

[–] christian@hexbear.net 14 points 3 days ago

I don't usually laugh out loud when reading ridiculous Trump tweets, but when I got to Marjorie "Traitor" Brown I lost it.

[–] WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Trump is a perfect example of a bit of... let's call it psychology physics.

Just like a balloon, the more an ego is inflated, the more fragile it gets.

for some reason this comment made me think of the "how many rubber bands can i put on this watermelon before it explodes" video, and thought of someone running that experiment with a certain person's shitsaturated cranium

They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!
