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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

I posted a Blue Q drop yesterday about Baldwin and today he's a free man. Coincidence? Patriots in control.

“police incompetence allows producer/star to kill cinematographer without consequences”

Turns out he was just method acting angry-place

Isn’t he a producer? In other words, allowed unsafe conditions to occur then scabbed while the armorers protested, then killed a person because he agreed to hire dumbasses instead. Hell of a lot more than just “accidentally shooting a person out of negligence.”

Yuuuuuup. That fact gets lost in the shuffle but if Baldwin had just been an actor I would have put him down as a victim in this whole tragedy also. Its ludicrous to expect an actor to be in charge of prop gun safety.

He wasn't just an actor though. Its his production company which means that if you go up the chain of bad decisions that led to this you realize that the person most chiefly responsible for Alec Baldwin accidentally shooting a man...is Alec Baldwin.

Isn't it the scab and then Baldwin?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

Yeah but Baldwin choose not to get good union workers and he hired the scab

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Nah, he's not without blame but scab still wouldn't have been in the position to fuck up if Baldwin hadn't hired him in the first place.

Just in time for him to play Trump on SNL and be like “vote for me, the felon!”

Can't believe there's a death row criminal with Deadpool's name.

I always get Alec Baldwin and Alex Jones mixed up so I was pretty surprised when I saw this headline
