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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

If only the USA would use the same "can do" attitute that it did during the Korean, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq and Ukraine wars to battling Climate Change things might not be so bleak

Quick someone tell them climate change wants to implement rent control

[–] Red_sun_in_the_sky@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

implement rent control

Whoa whoa whoa not very cash money of climate change

[–] fox@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I wonder if the gargantuan landlords are psyched about climate change obliterating coastal cities because it means they can charge more when the housing supply shrinks

They will start collecting rent for the plots consumed by the sea

If they can only bomb climate change?

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

America could bomb itself.

Climate change would have to have oil first.

Climate change causes hurricanes, so we nuke the hurricanes. Duhh

The same "can do" attitude that lead to them losing every single one of those wars? No thank you.

[–] Moss@hexbear.net 36 points 1 week ago

We know that already, which is why we need to get to damage mitigation ASAP, and the only way to mitigate the damage of capitalism is communism

wish we would stop posting defeatist shit from lib activists, it's just gotten clear to them that their activism has failed and they're taking the coward's way out instead of trying to figure out where they went wrong (not being communists). like even with some of her cringe lib slava ukrani shit compare this dude rolling over to greta thunberg getting increasingly radical every year and learning to correctly link liberation struggles like palestine to their necessity in combating climate change

if 99% of humanity dies due to climate catastrophe, there's still about 8 million people left fighting the class war. it doesn't end until every last person on earth is dead

I'm buying stock in Climate Posadism to hedge my ideological bets

So at what point do we just say fuck it illegal-to-say

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

Only when we're dead

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Damage mitigation is the only way. Humanity fucked this up like we fucked up damn near everything else.

[–] RedSailsFan@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

"humanity" didnt fuck shit it's the imperial core fucking this up

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 week ago

We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas! 😔

It is now the movie D.O.A., we have a limited time to seek revenge against those that have poisoned the planet.
