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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

"America is the only Nation in the world founded on an idea: We are all created equal and deserve to be treated equally throughout our lives. We have never fully lived up to that idea, but we have never fully walked away from it either."
OK but when I say foreign people's lives matter as much as American lives so warmongers like Bush, Obama, Clinton, and Biden are mass murderers and should be tried for murder, I'm the crackpot? Are all people evil or not?
Libs be like all people are equal except for anyone we want to kill
Shut the fuck up Amerikkka was founded on racism and genocide.
John Brown is my American Founding Father, let's write the history as it should be.
Uh aktually, if you had paid attention to social studies, America was founded on tax evasion.
Yep, which makes Genocide Joe a fitting president.
A blatant lie if there ever was one. America was founded by literal slave owners who were eager to exterminate the indigenous population and steal their land.
Yep and there were even white people who pointed out how absurd it was for the founders to act like they thought all people were equal when they also tortured human beings with chattel slavery. Wasn't a "times were different" thing, America has just always been evil.
The one “good” founding father, Paine, was an idealist who’s words were co-opted to further their bourgeois revolt. He died penniless and reviled because he actually believed the equality shit
I really hate how American politicians use so much American exceptionalism in their speeches. They can’t make a single one without acting like they’re an exception among bottom feeders.
American politicians don't know any history at all.

Ho Chi Minh was inspired by the US’ declaration of independence and even included its opening lines of everyone being created equal in the Vietnamese Declaration of Independence, and for that, the US slaughtered his countrymen.
Well don't you see, all the people they targeted were evildoers so the collateral damage is easily forgiven! It works for citizens too, just the other day I saw a man threatening someone, a heroic Car Driver went straight into the crowd and settled that mess, may the 15 souls lost find peace.
