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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

I went to 4chan during the Michael Brown protests and let me tell you. I saw the fucking heart of darkness. I saw the absolute irredeemable soul of misanthropy on full display. I was doing it to keep tabs of their bullshit but it got so depressing I just couldn't do it anymore.

4chan and its unchecked, unchallenged psychopathy is the exact reason why I have gone from being a succdem who cherishes human rights to a full-blown tankie.

Lol what

We cherish human rights. That's literally the whole point of being a commie.

Pipelines are real. That's why the feds had to shut down r/CTH.

Kinda funny how we're the ones with the ideology that actually challenges the state and we just....don't commit crimes.

We never see any of us going into, say, Harrison Arkansas and attacking people. Yet we're the ones routinely demonized on the more popular, democratized media. We're always the bad guys and these shooters are always painted as the good guys, if not the REAL victims.

And the furthest you could stretch leftist violence would be groups like Red Army Faction, who very specifically targeted capitalists, cops, NATO commanders, et al (and the people who protected them).

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

A lot of Red Army Faction's targets were actual, literal Nazis who escaped any consequences after the war and got rich.
