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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

the stupidest coalition you could think of. a gender based party against gendered rights.

One of the better examples of the old "leopards ate my face" thing

CW for meat in the picture.

Why did no one tell me beanis was running for office in the UK?

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I had to double check, because I didn't spot any meat. But I think I see it now. Thanks for the heads up.

Mouth is a sausage and ears are bacon, if you're still unsure.

It's like if carnism had a Dark Souls style final boss.

There were (as far as I'm aware) two different baked bean themed candidates running for parliament this year.

The other one, Captain Beany, ran in Maesteg.

Uncritical support to Count Binface

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

There were at least two bean themed candidates as well

Although funny, the reason “Parker”s party did so badly is because all the main UK parties are fully transphobic. There is no need for even the most committed TERF to vote for this no-name grifter.

[–] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 14 points 11 months ago

If your party gets less votes than the MRLP then it should just automatically be dissolved, no matter how big it is. Keep going until the house of commons is under their near-unanimous control (except for speaker Count Binface)

PP Party recieves less votes than Benis Party.

Poise Parker is incredibly fringe. TERFs don't like her for the most part.

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure if anyone's really friends with her and not just using her

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I hope they're getting paid or something for it, at least... she seems chummy with that murican fundamentalist columnist guy...

[–] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

She has made it very clear that she will ally with anyone over opposition to trans rights so they are mostly using her for that. She's gone full antifeminist recently so TERFs are slowly starting to distance themselves from her and the right is starting to like her more.

lol, lmao even
