I mean, the optics don't get worse than conducting a genocide on an entire nation where your ~~soldiers~~ monsters shoot off the genitalia of children for sport.

IIRC no repercussions were enacted against those pieces of filth for those flagrant atrocities and those are some of the worst optics you can have. Honestly, the only optics that matter for Israel right now is their relationship with the imperialist US. As long as they continue to kiss the ring, they can do whatever they like.

Y'know until the world's had enough. That said, I'm pretty sure the oceans are acidifying pretty rapidly right now, so maybe mother nature will take care of all the zionists and fascists (along with the rest of us). Too bad most of us were too busy making our corporate masters their mints while Greta was sounding the alarm. Who knows what kind of world we would be living in had a significant portion of the world population taken her and other environmentalists seriously.

I'm not even sad we're about to go extinct. I'm tired of sharing this planet with monsters and their slaves.

I understand completely and I do feel similar, being tired of people refusing to actually enact change and being incapable of looking beyond the approved „acceptable“ measures to do so.

Yet its the most oppressed and powerless that will suffer the most and longest. Being rendered extinct „just“ so that the empire is finally gone, is not really justice.

Didn't trump just fly there to be like "hey yeah you should pardon Bibi" like hm seems the ring kissing goes the other way. Trump must have really liked the golden pager they gave him

I tried pointing out that the tail seems to be wagging the dog more and more recently but nobody listens to me!

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:

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.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
