Rules:

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.

Fucking middle East. Fucking Russia. Couldn't resist lighting some fuses because they saw other fuses being lit.

Thank you China (so far) for not further escalating.

With a climate conscious president taking over Mexico I'm equally worried about the u s. Doing something stupid.

China is escalating in their own way, what with the recent article about censoring satellite communication traffic

China also escalates through funding of regimes. Without China stabilizing Russia's economy (and a little help from India), Russia might have collapsed under sanctions by now.

Most people in the Middle East want to life in peace. It is the geopolitical powers and settler colonialists that wont let them.
