This is beyond passive voice

Sneering voice. They know.

I hope a huge crater appears around NYT building after Russia says it struck a militant center with an Avangard glide vehicle

[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 44 points 1 month ago

woops! we just put these two completely disconnected events in the same headline! how clumsy of us!

"Crater develops in Gaza after kinetic incident."

[-] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago

That might only get the silver medal in today's Most Despicable NYT Article competition. This one implies that every bombing of a school is justified:

Unwilling to Be Human Shields, Some Gazans Turn Gunmen Away From Shelters

(Different headline in the archived version, but that's what it says on the front page right now)

Could have been meteors, could have been the bombing, who's to say?

Hamas made the craters with their tunnel-digging shovels, as a joke

BREAKING: Activity recorded at astronomical observatory days prior to devastating meteor strike now linked to Hamas

[-] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 25 points 1 month ago

Man those craters just appeared like that? Crazy

"to target a militant center" brow

Yeah, for sure.

[-] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 25 points 1 month ago

God the "militant" is such ratfuck wording. "Military center" implies an official organization. "Militant center" implies Palestine is training civilians to do terrorism.

[-] christian@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

Actually it makes perfect sense. If you don't recognize your adversaries as legitimate states, then they don't have any official organizations, meaning any fighting back is automatically terrorism.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
