news
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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

it's crazy to see even people here writing him off as a median guy. the median amerikkkan is not a CS graduate from Penn who was reposting elon reply guys and debating incel shit about japanese culture. a syncretic, ideologically incoherent moron to be sure, but a solidly fascist one.
he'll still be labeled as left by the media ecosystem despite screaming fascist. guess we'll see what he says before/during trial/etc.
im not donating to his defense. he can ask his hero Peter Thiel (or Elon) to. after all, it seems he loves CEOs just hated one in particular.
it's already begun even.
His post about banning flashlights was pretty wild
I think he was talking about fleshlights, not flashlights? It makes more sense in the context of that post.
Fleshlights*
you're really going to say he's nothing like the average american and then go on to describe the average american
well that's not unfair, but the average amerikkkan isn't actually reading the unabomber manifesto and thinking that it feels like mathematical lemmas.
