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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

This is the least of the Fink's worries. He's directly fucking with China with port purchases. They're going crush Larry for fun

Isn't this the same guy that said that there's no difference in whoever gets elected?

Equating the (for capital) bland, unsurprising Harris with the mercurial Trump that threatens tariffs (or war) to parties who were merely rude to him tells me Fink was either trying to maintain a neutral posture to avoid potential blowback from the winner, or he is really stupid

Then maybe you shouldn't have worked so hard to destabilize it by making it so top-heavy, Larry.

You know, Donnie's last term was extremely profitable for all the bloodless ghouls. I was pessimistically expecting the same this time round. I suppose this is mostly the AI bubble deflating, since the neoliberal hegemony doesn't let bubbles pop, they just vent a bit of air and when people forget, let the good times roll!

Anyway unlimited genocide on the first world
