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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

i showed my lib coworker this and they fr did the "concerning, looking into it" meme like
Weird, I was expecting a "This proves Ukraine attacked a NATO country, time to invade Ukraine" response!
how do you have the patience? I gave up on this years ago. it always ends with me "looking crazy"
To stop telling the truth for fear of looking crazy, this is a nineteenth type of liberalism.
fuck, you're right
Frankly I wish i'd been more public and out of pocket with my predictions these last couple years, because I stood to gain a lot of cred when they all came true.
The only one I’ve been wrong about was “Russia isn’t going to invade Ukraine, y’all need to calm down”
boredom at work, i just whip my phone out and go "bro check this out" and show him
I had such moment rained on me once, my coworker suddenly said to me "Did you hear? Trujillo is dead"
I was like: "Is that news? he's dead for like 60 years already"
He: "Wait, who?"
Me: "Rafael Trujillo, dictator of Dominicana"
He: "Who? I mean Robert Trujillo of Metallica"
Me: "Who?"
Also turned out he's still alive. Robert that is, Rafael is thankfully still dead.
[cognitive dissonance intensifies]
Why is this concerning? The less orc pipelines exist, the better
"It wasn't us. Also it's a good thing we did it"
