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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

holy shit I'm actually wheezing from this

It would be so funny if there's a substantial write-in campaign by Democrats. Make Biden the spoiler candidate.

Trump is his vice president after all.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 5 days ago

this is what he meant when he said he would "do 9/11"

That’s weird, I thought Trump was the second coming of Hitler. I guess the Nazi armband isn’t far behind!

naotoca comments on Biden dons Trump hat in Shanksville as show of 9/11 unity: White House

I get what Joe's intent is here, but it is not at all a good idea to do shit like this. It's like putting on a Nazi armband as a joke.

No... it's really not like that at all.

This made me laugh....

I told my partner this and she refuses to believe it's not satire

This really feels like it could be either.

I doubt it was "for unity" tbh. Not because Joe wouldn't do that, he totally would; but I think his brain is scrambled eggs at this point, he's not playing that kind of chess anymore; all it would take is 1 Trumper in the audience handing him a hat and he'd put it on without a second thought. That's probably what happened and his handlers spun some juicy unity cope for the media. Joe probably thinks Trump was president 24 years ago during 9/11 and that he's not even running right now. He probably thinks that Presinald Trunt stopped 9/11 by telling the planes they have to go back.

Whats scary is that the same people running Kamalas campaign who act like Trump is a "threat to democracy" were also the ones insisting to voters that this man was able to be president for another four years.

JD vance vs AOC in 2050:

Aoc: “ 5000 republicans endorsed me, including trump, cenk uighur and desantis”

Who let him out?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago

Probably angry that he got forced out and this is the emperor striking back or something

“Kamala did so bad in last night's debate, Joe Biden just put on a Trump hat,”

I knew they would eventually rehabilitate cheeto-man but I'd figure they'd wait until at least after midterms where they need "unity" or after Trump's term is over. The hitler-detector have been breaking barriers.

It's going to be agony watching all the frothing at the mouth libs who insist that Trump will murder everyone and eat their dogs suddenly do a 180 and call him "one of the respectable ones" in 4 years time when the next Republican is on the ballot.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Does anyone else miss silly Hitler? Scary hitler is so scary. I wish we could go back to silly hitler. Anyway here's why your policy proposal isn't bi-partisan enough.

The hat looks like it's resting on top of his head, not actually pulled down around his head.

We've jumped the shark folks.
