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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

That's pretty bad , damn, it took Trump the covid winter + January 6th to finally fall below 40%.

Probably doesn't help that Biden now looks like he belongs in a sarcophagus.

It's the base.

Trump knows 40% of the country loves it when he says immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country and we need to deport everybody who isn't a white Christian republican.

He takes shit from the media but sticks to his fascist rhetoric and 40% of the country will literally drive across the country to smear their shit on the walls of Pelosis office.

Meanwhile Bidens base is people who don't like fascism but also don't feel strongly about the climate, workers rights, or genocides.

And then whenever he faces any pushback he tells his base to fuck off and agress the Republicans have sone legit concerns.
