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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --
The state of Missouri is set to execute Marcellus, even though literally NO ONE with a stake in the outcome of the case—not even the prosecutor nor the victim's family— wants him to die. Learn More Here
This is devastating. Reminder that Dems took abolishing the death penalty off their part platform. Literally every single day there is another horror that convinces me that the America of 2024 is no different to the America of the Trail of Tears.
one of Clinton's political moves during his 92 campaign was to go back to his home state to sit and watch a mentally-disabled man be executed to show he was "tough on crime."
I mean yeah otherwise it might beg the question of why didn't Biden/Harris do literally anything
It still begs the question of how much longer they think they can keep murdering innocent folk, this is one of the most unambigiously ghoulish things the US has done domestically in recent memory. There is literally nothing that justifies this. No amount of concern trolling or formalism can take away from the fact that an innocent man, with DNA evidence already available that proved his innocence, was murdered for no other reason than being black.
This is why I keep hoping someone generates the intestinal fortitude to actually start slapping this country in the face again. I'd betray these crackers so fucking fast... Sell 'em all out to whoever wants their blood the most, and then I'll watch what happens to 'em.
