-- 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 --

-- 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. --

you'd think the idiotic state-planners in the US would suddenly realize not having earth mineral refinement in Canada, USA, or Mexico is a serious, existential issue and would do something about it via gov't investments, subsidies, tax-free industry, etc.
but lol NOPE.
china can literally do whatever the fuck it wants and make whatever demands it wants because the idiots in the west are so fucking incompetent. idiot Biden allowed China to get Russian natural gas for cheap because he wouldn't let Russian trade with anyone else, and then did fuck all to fix the "issue." just wild blunder after blunder from idiot western gov'ts.
i know like "fuck george orwell" and everything, but it reminds me of that ~1940 essay the lion and the unicorn (iirc) he wrote wherein idiot UK was manufacturing hats, dresses, furniture, bullshit consumer goods, etc. while Germany was mass producing tanks, guns, bombs, etc.
