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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

MODERATORS
If partying hard is a crime then throw me in jail.
Also reactionaries really need to give this "disaster for dad Joe's campaign" shit a fucking rest already. There's a very long list of legitimate criticisms that people have of Genocide Joe, and his son dropping a mil on hookers and blow is not anywhere close to the top of it.
I'm not opposed to this perspective but Joe fuckin Biden is the guy who wrote the '94 crime bill. He argued in the Senate to put motherfuckers in prison for renting warehouses to ravers. This man's son does more drugs than most of the people in prison from his bill, and yet he's not in prison. It's absolutely ripe political fodder for attacking him, there's no reasonable argument for his kid not being affected by his awful policies other than he knows they're awful and he doesn't want his son affected by them. He should be attacked for this shit, it should be a normal way to criticize him. If his kid shouldn't be in prison for the obvious, well documented crimes he does, why should anybody elses?
Beautifully put. It's not like Hunter Biden being in jail is going to make me feel good either. Let other people's sons and daughters out of jail for shit no one cares about. If you would then decide to get help for addicts then you'd have my non-American vote so fucking fast
Edit: he'd face jail time for tax memes, not for the stuff normies go to jail for. Hehexd moment
