Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

The group that drafted a key blueprint for Donald Trump’s second term convened a meeting in Washington D.C. this week to consider proposals for bulldozing the European Union (EU).

The Polish investigative outlet VSquare revealed that the Heritage Foundation gathered hardline conservative groups on 11 March to hear how they would overhaul the current structures of the EU.

The “closed-door workshop” featured a debate on a new paper produced by the lobby groups MCC and Ordo Iuris entitled: “The Great Reset: Restoring Member State Sovereignty in the 21st Century”.

Bro WTF? The US should get ZERO say regarding the EU, its membership, and its continued existence. If it wasn't clear enough for the average dumbass American, the right wing movement in the US is beholden to Russian interests. Every time they do something like this, you should be asking yourself, "who does this benefit the most?"

It's always Putin. He must laugh his ass off at how stupid and malleable Americans have become.

He won brexit, then Trump 1, and finally pulled the three-peat.

хет-трик or "khet trik" is a common Russian phrase, borrowed from the English "hat trick", to describe three consecutive successes.

Limited media markets in the part of the country that has disproportionate share of political power relatives for population is a huge problem

It's not media markets, it's culture, the south hates, hates, hates, well, everything now.

Liberals are all evil for supporting LGBT as an abomination against God, for supporting brown people just to spite better whites, and for wanting to talk to foreigners when they should be on their knees admitting how superior we are.
