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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

My apologies for the Twitter link. Appears to have happened around 1:30 EDT, judging from the timestamp in the video. Seems unsurprising that Amerikkkan infrastructure is in this dire of a state (at the cost of innocent people's lives, as usual), but I'd still love to know what the hell happened here. Hopefully the early hour meant that more people weren't harmed.

I wonder if the chuds will blame TikTok and trans people for this, and not like, the state of their Empire

the Baltimore Sun is linking the incident with local trans YouTuber ContraPoints

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 42 points 6 months ago

I'm no fan of adventurism or accelerationism, but glad to see Contra is finally actually doing something.

Local trans people are just too damn cute and I can't keep myself from staring.

Well I saw a blue check on Twitter say the shipping company does DEI and that anti-whiteness is to blame for the incident

There's a bunch of people screaming about DEI in the twitter thread lol. That, ukrainians, China and Joe Biden false flag. Also some libs going "WHY DIDN'T THE ENGINEERS MAKE THE BRIDGE UNCOLLAPSABLE WHEN HIT BY A SHIP" to mock people suggesting that maybe they should've constructed dolphins or something like that.

I refuse to see anything on twitter anymore, especially since nitter was killed what-the-hell liberal politics is deeply unserious, all these chuds and libs screaming about nonsense when it's clear it was because a massive ship hit a bridge.
