Really? To post a link to a thing is not to advocate for a thing.

illegal-to-say Did you know it’s illegal to say “I want to blow up fossil fuel infrastructure”? It’s illegal, it’s a bannable offense. It’s one of the only sentences you’re not allowed to post. Now, it was ok for me to say it just then because I was telling you that it’s illegal to say “I want to blow up fossil fuel infrastructure”. I’m not actually saying it, I’m just saying it’s illegal to post it. It’s kind of like a public service, I’m letting you know so that you didn’t go out, and accidentally post something like that. But what’s really interesting, is that it’s illegal to post “I really really want someone out there to blow up fossil fuel infrastructure”. That’s illegal, extremely illegal. Very very illegal. But not illegal to post “with a mortar launcher”, because that’s its own sentence. It’s an incomplete sentence, but it may have nothing to do with the sentence before that, so that’s perfectly fine. Perfectly legal.

I also found out it’s incredibly illegal, extremely illegal, to go on Hexbear and say something like “the best place to fire a mortar launcher at a pipeline would be a remote area, because of the minimal security and you’d have plenty of time to escape”. Insanely illegal. Ridiculously, recklessly, insanely illegal. Yet even more illegal would be to post a guide to infrastructure sabotage. INSANELY illegal. Ridiculously, horribly, bannable. They will come to your house in the middle of the night and ban you. Extremely against the law.

One thing that is technically legal to say, is that “we have a group that meets fridays under the Brooklyn bridge and the password is Sic Semper Tyrannus”.

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. --
