A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

America, this is how you do it.

Sadly, their heads are too far up their own asses to hear you.

We have plenty of recent examples. The problem is that we were so complacent, so comfortable, that we forgot that bad things could really happen to us. If we are lucky, Trump and Friends will ruin things too fast for us to tolerate in the next 6 months to tolerate keeping the status quo. Best case scenario is we wrestle control back away from our unbalanced government and become internally focused for some time to rebuild while the rest of the world gets to take a little break.
