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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Good things happening, in America!?
Michigan, a state I had wrote off as doomed to fall into maga hell before the midterms but got its first dem majority in 38 years, passed sensible gun reform that will require cops to remove guns from homocide risk individuals or loose their job, expanded the civil rights act to include LGBTQA, repealed the abortion ban, and ended right to work ALL ON THE SAME FUCKING DAY THIS WEEK. All of which has major support from the voters from what I can tell.
It might have something to do with the huge population of Islamic immigrants pushing Michigan's voting demographics in a progressive direction.
Ehhhh that Muslim population had always been there, and it’s currently said Muslim population pushing the book banning
Everyone I know from Dearborn is a MAGA fan or thinks trans kids need guns.
Yeah that checks out for me too. Most of the progressive Muslims I know/volunteered with were in Hamtramck
