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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

It's like that lady who said she wasn't involved in politics while being front and center at a Trump rally.
I think we are underappreciating how many dipshits in this country don't consider their beliefs politicial because "it's what I think so it's the normal position, all the other positions are the political ones"
Like in video games how there's two races, white and political. I think there really are a lot of mouth breathing chuds out there who that is unironically their entire worldview.
The wife of the chud who got shot said she was non-political as well, despite refusing to take a phone call from the sitting president to honor her husband's memory
Look we've got two sides in this country, Republicans and The Political
Yea that's who I was talking about in her statement she said she doesn't get involved in politics then a sentence later said she was voting for Trump.
So many people, libs especially, fail to understand that the colloquial meaning of "political" especially to reactionaries, doesn't mean involving politics, it means involving heterodox politics.
Kneeling at a football game during the Anthem is "political" yet having players stand for the Anthem, which is recent and part of a military recruitment campaign (not joking) somehow isn't.
I live in a liberal enclave inside a larger red area and I've found that "no politics allowed" never actually means that, it just means toe the line or GTFOH, which can be initially confusing being that there's two very different clashing ideologies common in the area, separated by some very fuzzy boundaries, both of which I disagree with.
Yea noticed the same thing. "No politics" means chuds are allowed to say gay people are pedophiles and should be rounded up but also means you can't call them a dumbshit bigot for saying that, that would be political.
