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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

this is gonna happen more and more often. ameriKKKans have a thirst for blood and a fetish for punishment. many older or otherwise bitter people believe they should be able to dish out the maximum amount of punishment against someone for the tiniest transgression
i had seen one of those “scare dumb old people” news stories recently in my local paper. apparently atlanta has a problem with “roving youth gangs ding dong ditching”. i saw multiple comments by exactly who you would expect, retelling stories about how recently some kids tried to do this to them and they came outside with a gun and aimed it at the kids. all the comments in support of this. they framed it like they were “defending themselves”. they painted it as “sure it was just a kid ding dong ditching but it could have been a criminal trying to break into my house!!!”. they’re cowards who hate youth and want to kill children and on top of that they want to be called heroes for it.
