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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Take the L and call a truce already. He isnt getting the lands Ukraine bombed for 10 years back. Those who live in the zone will never forgive Zelensky or want back.

Far from taking the L, Ukraine is apparently about to announce another mass mobilization, which makes Zelensky's visit yesterday to a Ukrainian school even more creepy

Read this with those clunky cutscene pauses between lines that late 90s games had.

Also imagined them as blocky polygons but thats neither here nor there

And I was told that the counter-offensive hadn't even started yet.

[–] Sasuke@hexbear.net 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

the counter-offensive is more like a state of mind than a military operation

i'm a little surprised he'd admit it

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 26 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He's got to compete with Isreal for those proxy war bucks now

I keep wondering if there's going to be a mass wave of uprisings against western-allied but locally-unpopular governments in the global south quite soon. The arms stockpiles are getting low, and direct cash as foreign aid is getting unpopular among the citizenry of western countries. This seems like the ideal time for insurgent groups to take action.

inshallah-script

I think that's basically what happened in Niger. Hopefully it happens more

New cope: Russian winter will defeat Russia.

[–] TomBombadil@hexbear.net 36 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've seen this cope since the beginning

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 38 points 11 months ago

Russia, famous for not understanding Russian weather.
