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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Whoever ordered this should be pulled before the ICJ on charges of encouraging genocide.

Can any brits weigh in here, what's the vibe? Are average british folk really falling for this shit? It seems so obviously like a politically motivated attack that the lib in me can't help but think this kind of clampdown will hurt their cause (the power of optics!)

[–] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 13 points 5 hours ago

average br*tish folk

Whoa you gotta censor a slur like that. Honestly idk how that made it past the automod.

Thank fucking god

No. This is primarily the state desperately playing whac-a-mole against majority public sentiment. There's basically a club of like 300-500 people in media/politics with a constituency of online racists who also hate their guts who support this stuff and just scream showers of shite about it 24/7.

Absolutely 0% chance that if this guy said "death to hamas" on stage he would be getting a visa revoked for "glorifying violence"

"Since then, both members of Bob Vylan - who were due to embark on a tour of America later this year - have had their US visas revoked, it is understood.

US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau wrote on X: "Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country.""

"Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country.""

Unlike good honest muricans who glorify violence, MAJOR difference.

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 19 points 8 hours ago

Most of their media including marvel slop is thinly veiled propaganda with DOD blessing to justify violence at every turn. Stop the cap

Has the UK ever been run by actual human beings instead of sentient malevolent flesh demons?

We had like one semi good government after WWII who gave us the NHS. Even they were still imperialists.
