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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --
Honestly I was already presuming since the election that I wasn't going to spend time in Mni Sota Makoce this year, but like... Someone around my age and appearance, from the same country as me, getting terrorized, harassed and humiliated by government thugs for five hours and then deported, all over a single innocuous meme? The chances of me going this year went from like 5% to 0%, and the rest of my family feels basically the same way.
The number of Norwegians visiting Seppoland has gone down the toilet since Trump got re-elected. Every day it really feels more and more like we're seeing the rise of an actual Seppo Sakoku.
Unfortunately if we're honestly going to be prepared for the 2026 world cup we're going to have open up a lot more prisons
My prediction is that Trump will threaten FIFA with a last-minute demand that either all games are held in the USA, or none of them can be.
