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:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
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.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.

Okay sorry but this one is a bit hard to parse. Can you like, reiterate with less very online leftist guy posting energy?
well, I mean I could go into my rant where I try and describe what I think represents the labor aristocracy in core countries or in India, like there's a labor aristocracy there that benefits from the sub imperialism very distinctly also, sorry if I don't take any dictation errors and this is hot
Uh, okay, think I kinda got that one
all right, that one's indecipherable give me a second to fix that I'm walking. I don't know what the fuck is Sansui is
Okay this prompts me to ask, what is the writing process that "guys like you" have for comments like these? Cuz you pull out weird ass lingo even seasoned Marxists consider obscure and odd turns of phrases that reference weirdly niche shit, so niche apparently YOU don't even fully understand them. Like are you just googling random shit every 10 seconds that's only vaguely connected to the topic at hand and then just try and shoe horn it into the comment or is this crap all just stuff you half remember via osmosis and you're typing steam of consciousness style?
You actually seem to respond to people unlike the various interactions of BMF so I'm hoping for some insight here.
I mentioned in another random comment this is mostly automatic writing or dictation that I scream while walking around
Regardless of anything else, I don't think this is the most healthy or productive way to post and, genuinely, perhaps log off for a bit a touch grass.
Back to square one then I guess
This one's a tagliner for sure though. Completely incomprehensible
literally this and UNIONIZE UNIONIZE LOCAL ELECTIONS LOCAL ELECTIONS LOCAL ELECTIONS loll
buddy that's all I've got, there is nothing but square one here
Enjoy your banh mi
basically everything that makes a guy a redditor, right? like what makes a guy go on the Chicago sub Reddit and become a power poster. It shouldn't surprise anyone when you find out that these people are like Raytheon weirdos or their landlord do you know
go to the people who have the fakest ass job, work at salesforce, any of that shit, or they make their money off of investments are off of finance. Those are not the people we need to propagandize for any reason
So what I'm saying is Lenny is a fucking shit hole I don't care what anyone there thinks. I kind of care what you guys think because like your analysis is interesting to me not just because I like take it as gospel but because like it's understand me where you're coming from.
Okay, but like this seems in conflict with your earlier complaint about the sub stagnating in growth. The reason were this way is cuz we basically keep this community as a sound proofed bunker from the rest of bazinga brained society (threw that one in there to try and make you feel included)
Oh yea I'm saying like any attempt to take on aspects of the other communities for growth would be stupid as fuck. But this site should still be attracting crazed ideology soup brained twitteroids like me, ya dig.
Like ngl I have invited many people here and they almost all got instantly banned and were like these people suck, but I also don't disagree with why they were banned. I just told them to subscribe to the bulletins and news rss
Like that was how I found out one of them was an egoist
The most annoying time of online argument person possible! We just swapped Covid bews
I'd rather it cuz that gaggle includes a lot of weirdos, like actual NatBols, dudes who think the cancer causing affects of cigarettes are Western propaganda, trans neo Nazis who support the DPRK (real person fyi), and like ML furry porn artists who think all other furries are d*generate, including them but they kinda get a pass cuz they made a cartoon of Bear Stalin fucking Horse Mao (that one I made up but it's probably real).
Granted Elon taking over has chased a lot of those types away.
I think that at some point you all need to consider that your main reference point (Hinkkkle) for "nazbols" is a literal actual US intelligence and Mossad asset in broad daylight.
Idk what else I'm supposed to call a dude with a tattoo of both Stalin and Czar Nicholas III than "NazBol"
It's just a leftist version of horseshoe theory at this point with the way it's been brought up past 2 years on social media lol
Fine, call them LaRoushites then, idk
Dennis King - Lyndon LaRouche and the new American fascism (1989, Doubleday) - libgen.li.pdf 13.2 MB https://files.catbox.moe/j9bbdk.pdf
Do you want a book about them? Because the original LaRouche wanted intelligence collaboration so desperately they still of course got burned despite being just the cheapest assets ever
I mean yeah, that's what NazBols, PatSocs and LaRoushites are, fascists who like public ownership a bit more than the OG Nazis did.
It's like posting the Dmitri Utkin Bellingcat hoax picture
I know I am way late to this little party, but this site absolutely should not cater to the brain-dead dopamine addled posting of completely vacuous morons who mistake ideological masturbation for philosophy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with having base-line agreement of certain theoretical stances and then arguing on extrapolations, rather than circle-jerking on whether or not reality is really real for the umpteenth time like a fourteen year old who just discovered Descartes.
