Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- 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 not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Rip the mask off, we are in a fascist state; The elites want fascism. Let's go baby arm up, run guns, sabotage. Die for the revolution, or live in tyranny in a dying and warming world. THERE'S NOTHING TO LOSE.
preaching to the choir i know. My brother is a conspiracy theorist, and I struggle to have the confidence that these lunatics have, the certainty with which they scream and yell about deep states and cabals. So I try to be nuanced. But you try to be nuanced, you try to remain cool headed, and reality is like blaring klaxon horns at you, that the world is on fire. It's so depressing.
It's more of a lack of confidence, it's a fear response that leads to self-victimization and boatloads of nihilism and depression. This is also a feature of the USian system. They're not lunatics, they're incredibly, incredibly scared but have no theory nor understanding of history to help them.
