    You don’t ban Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders); that’s the whole point of them. They cross borders to deliver medical care where it’s needed, when it’s needed. That is why they exist.

    The fact that Israel did that anyway should tell you all you need to know. You’re not antisemitic if you oppose what Israel does. If for whatever reason you couldn’t justify the ethics of being opposed to Israel before, they just handed you a damn fine reason to oppose them on ethical reasons (if the previous ones didn’t cut it).

    Wow, impressive. Israel continues to break new ground on how to be cartoonishly evil. Never ever tell me shit like this in fiction is “unrealistic.”

      It’s crazy how fiction promises us that if villains were to ever say what they truly want to do and it was broadcast to the world that people would rise up and do something about it, while Israeli politicians openly spout literal genocidal rhetoric and you still have half the population defending it.

      I’d prefer to see THAT movie, the movie where the villain reveals his intentions openly, it’s treated for a brief second or two as if he’s damned himself, and then half the population defends what he’s doing; that and have reporters in the movie choosing to switch the cameras off for war crimes, or choosing not to air videos of war crimes because it hurts the story they’re trying to tell, and chastising suffering victims.

      Nothing makes it more obvious that movies are just for escapism than literally what’s been happening for the last two years; would Lois Lane had she been a real person asked Gazans who lost family members if they condemned Hamas? Would she have chosen not to record literal war crimes and taken AIPAC/zionist blood money? Real life reporters for the most part have been either spineless or literal ghouls.

        Have you watched sorry to bother you? This is definitely a theme in the movie. It is also directed and written by a communist, so…

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

  • To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).

  • To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.

  • To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don’t post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
