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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

Trying to imagine how that lady who took over her husband's pro-Osprey posting station is reacting to the news.

Imagine being the biggest V22 fanboy in existence, dying while flying it and getting it grounded and taken out of service

Maybe... "This is a sad day for America." ???

I can't believe they would go against UR_WRONG_ABOUT_V22's final wishes like that, he would have wanted them to keep flying

I support any mechanical device that kills Redditors

This thing has been falling out of the air for 20 years and now they're grounding it?

They have to after the loss of the Ghost of NonCredibleDefense, u/UR_WRONG_ABOUT_V22. He was the best V22 pilot on Earth and the only thing keeping back the baying horde of leftists mocking our glorious tilted rotor aircraft. With his loss, V22 cannot go on…
