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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Most westerners are of an “me first” attitude. You seriously expect them to accept the fact that they just can’t have something?

They're going to have to if anything is to be done about climate change. (I do not expect anything to be done about climate change.)

Same. I’m sure the rich will be fine, until it becomes obvious they’re utterly useless.

many certainly are cucked by their political economy into believing with absolute certainty, despite all evidence to the contrary, the current and wildly unsustainable configuration is all that's possible.

pretty sure if they can swallow "Trump v Biden = democracy" and "no money for healthcare, infinity money for war" they can wrap their minds around "no vine ripe tomatoes in January".

We have Labour versus Conservatives. I have no sympathy. Sorry.

no one asked you to. you stated westerners can't accept limitation, and then I pointed out how they do, constantly, and with great ease.

sorry you're having so much trouble keeping up with your own argumentation.

I was taking the piss.

How can you expect us to give up our treats!?!?!? You must hate freedom.
