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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --
SF cleaning up their house before guests come over to stay... I would love to see chinese media(or documentary or something) going to SF and on one street seeing a bunch of luxery cars, fancy dressed people, expensive ass restaurants and literally next street over bunch of homeless struggling to survive and do some story... maybe even pull some "fake and dystopian city"(like America loves to do with China and DPRK) stuff before and after the "clean up"
Chinese media never publishes shit like this even though it's so obvious out of what I assume to be some weird honor code only they follow (they literally banned making korean war movies in the early 2000s to "avoid harming the feelings of the American people"). I wish one day CCTV or something would just walk around the Tenderloin or Skid Row with a camera or some smth and get all the liberals to stfu but they'd never do it.
i feel the same way.. if they could just manage to scoot a few blocks off the beaten path and make it to the Tenderloin they'd get just a glimpse of what it's really like here
Tbh I feel like the Tenderloin would be the nice part of the downtown area in most midwestern cities.
The entire SOMA area is sorta sketchy tbh
Tbf, this policy has clearly since been reversed
"Potemkin village" is the correct word, western propaganda love to use it in their projections.
