    isnt it fucked up how all of america’s propaganda is 100% reliant on taking advantage of how uninformed americans are?

    their nuclear ENERGY program. iran has a nuclear ENERGY program, not a nuclear weapons program. your average person doesn’t know the difference and these ‘people’ bank on that

    We’re not at war with Iran, we’re merely bombing critical energy infrastructure with some of the largest conventional bombs ever made… Can’t you tell the difference?

      Um, technically we’re not at war because the president can only do what he wants for up to 100 days and THEN he needs to get congressional approval

    It’s not a war it’s an unprovoked special military operation, which we’ve now decided is good actually

      Would have been an amazing move if al-Quadia claimed the attack and signed off with “now is the time for peace”

    The cushions are soft and lush, while the couch itself is filled with hard and painful materials; the cushions lack wood and the splinters that accompany it. The couch still exists without the plush nature of the cushions, and the cushions exist without the stiff and rigid nature of the couch’s structure. But this rigidness is required for the full pleasure of the cushions to be realized. The cushions alone are not enough for the boundless pleasure that fucking them brings. The couch is not only a philosophical necessity, but a material one as well.

    OK, I know it is probably mean to ask, but did Vance get some kind of botched plastic surgery or something in the past? There’s no way his face just looks like that naturally, right? He looks like a guy in a mask, like the scooby doo gang is about to trap him and reveal it was actually old man withers or something.

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.

  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.
