Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.

Is this another tanky group? 6-12 workweeks for starvation wages are not quote a flex on worker rights.
sorry you're living in a liberal bubble where you don't even realize the statistics neoliberal shits like Stephen Pinker rely on to peddle the image of capitalism improving global poverty draws almost all gains against said poverty from China
Weird how China's responsible for all that and not, say, India, or the recovery of post- Soviet Russia, it's almost like, gosh, having a communist party running things results in constant improvements for working people, who'd have thunk it. Quick, what's the rate of homeownership in China vs the west?? Man, love to be renting until i die, thanks capitalism. It's worth it for all this free fucking speech
Enjoy your declining standard of living and life expectancy if you live anywhere in the west!
P.s. and soviet Russia took the country from a dirt farming tsarist shithole to a space power in the span of a few decades despite three absolutely devastating wars (WW1, 2, and the civil war) and despite being far behind the rest of Europe's industry at their start.
It used to be you liberals would cry about how all that was built on the back of gulag slaves or whatever (despite America having the largest prison population both in absolute numbers and per capita, by far, with legalized slavery via the 13th amendment (and more widespread quasi slavery with prisoners paid pennies) and how America is the bastion of free speech. Well, guess what! None of that free speech has done a bit of good, at least not since the democrats entirely sold out to corporate interests. We speak, they listen, the american empire continues to plod along burning working people to death.
So yeah I guess I'm a tankie because if I'm going to live in a shithole without free speech I'll take the one that actually improves my life. Hey, it's almost like that's why the CPC is actually incredibly popular in China, hmmm! (P.s. China's not a shithole though)
Don't associate me with these douchebags you've come to associate the United States with.
Wasting my time yet again, thinking I am talking to real people, only to find out they are tools of some foreign government looking to make cheap political points.
oh my fucking god
"this person ranting at me CAN'T be some guy who just rolled out of bed and hit a huge bong rip then got actually mad at some liberal who continues to persist in anti-China authoritarian brainworms while literally every bit of anti china propaganda turns out to be western projection. they MUST be an AGENT OF A FOREIGN GOVERNMENT looking to make CHEAP POLITICAL POINTS"
i'll admit I'm here to shitpost but my god, be fucking grateful you get to interact with a real person on the internet while you still can. Pretty soon I'll be in a camp and you'll just have chatgpt to jerk off to
Lol. I haven't eaten enough lead paint yet today to understand wtf you're trying to say.
and here I was worried my own rambling comment would yield such insults, thank you comrade
I would never insult you, you're a good liberal. We have to band together against these tankie scum coming in and supporting the authoritarian United States empire.
Lol i wrote out and then deleted a post about like do you think this guy thinks maga fascists are tankies because Authority!!
The answer is no
Fascists don't consider anyone to their left to be human. Are you a fascist?
the enlightened big-brain take of "YEW ALL MUST B SEESEEPEE PUTIN AGENTS!". Truly a vexing one.
The only "tool" here is the one gargling State Department (now full of TrAiTors, according to you) nonsense on socialism/communism while you live in a nation that relies on entire nations and a reserve army of labor domestically of terrorized minorities that work 6-12 workweeks on starvation wages. The political points out of your fuckin' mouth would be cheap if they weren't bought off by the blood of the marginalized, destroyed nations and cultures this "government" is built on.
While you're at it, gripe and whine about traitors and SCOTUS while both sides of the aisle fund genocide.
Get off the high pedestal or use it to dunk your head in the toilet, nerd.
I'm so glad you've figured out and declared that you're the only real and non-political person here. So very enlightened buddy.
As a Chinese bot who is paid by Chairman Xi himself (it's a tough job but I've got a tiny little robot family to take care of), I'd like to invite you to use that superior human mouth to consume a bucket of sewage and expire.
also I'm kinda mad but in my haste to post this morning I didn't even think to tell you THE WORKING CONDITIONS ARE THAT BAD HERE. HOLY SHIT. FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGE IS STILL LIKE $7.25 AND I PROMISE YOU PEOPLE EXIST WHO ARE PAID THAT. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
