Bulletins and News Discussion from December 30th, 2024 to January 5th, 2025 - Another Goddamn Year of the Goddamn News

Image is of Jeff Daniels in The Newsroom, giving a speech (parodied below) about how - gasp - America sucks. But in a patriotic way.

And you - general megathread poster - yeah - just in case you accidentally wander into the news megathread one day, there are some things you should know, and one of them is that there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we're the greatest megathread in the world.

We're seventh in citations, twenty-seventh in accurate predictions, twenty-second in effortposts, forty-ninth in non-mainstream article posting, 178th in guessing when wars will start, third in powerusers, number four in dialectics, and number four in megathread exports. We lead Hexbear in only three categories: pointless infighting, number of adults who believe Putin is based, and copium manufacturing, where we produce more than the next twenty-six lemmy megathreads combined, twenty-five of whom are full of delusional liberals. None of this is the fault of any Hexbear user, but you, nonetheless, are without a doubt, a member of the WORST-period-GENERATION-period-EVER-period, so when you ask what makes us the greatest megathread in the world, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about! Jokes about whether they got a Zionist's semen in time?!

cybertruck bomber and NO attacker served at the same base according to LE, and they both used the Turo app to rent their vehicle
News station Denver 7 cited law enforcement sources on Thursday that Livelsberger and Jabbar had served at the same military base – a possible connection the US army has not independently confirmed to the Guardian.
from https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/02/cybertruck-explosion-driver-las-vegas
- Served at the same base at the same time; both were sent to Afghanistan at the same time; these dudes were 100% MKULTRAed sleeper agents who were activated to corral the narrative about how cool it is to gun down CEOs in the street.
  
  Jokes on them. All this shows is how uncool stochastic terror against normal people is relative to gunning down CEOs in the street (or wherever, I'm not picky on the location tbh).
  
  Agreed
  
  The capitalists don’t care about luigiposting, it will fizzle into nothing like everything else.
  They are trying to ensure Trump is provoked into war with Iran and boots on the ground in Syria
  
  Probably moreso to provoke Trump into war with Iran and boots on the ground in Syria
  People Luigiposting is immaterial and the capitalists don’t actually give a shit.
- Our intelligence agencies doing the strategy of tension at home now days
  
  it's nothing new tbh but definitely intensifying yeah
