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.

Then tell them to go fuck themselves. The end.

The US can just go fuck themselves even ignoring this

God, we're just fucking speed running the end of the goddamn world, aren't we?

I bet you an imaginary dime ( if you wanna bet, bet an imaginary whatever the physically-smallest coin is, where you are : )

.. that the Christian prophecy about the "1st Seal" will come true in 2nd-half of Feb.

Yes, we are speed-running "armageddon", aka The Great Filter.

The "Caucasian Serpent Time" ( Putin & Trump ) as the American Indians would recognize it, or the "white horse, the Time of Conquering", as Christians might, when each of the regions of the world is saturated on its-own warring, enforcing regional-consolidation, does begin shortly,

& concretizing of it all looks to be sometime around .. Feb-20, -/+ 1 week, now?

Something like that..

As Michael Burry rightly stated: "I may be early, but I am not wrong."

He was early, he wasn't wrong. ( economic collapse, should happen immediately after that 1st Seal opens )

Humankind WOULDN'T correctly grow-up, so ..

.. universe is enforcing some Natural Selection on our species.. pruning it down.

Prep, if you can: this isn't going to end before the 2070's, layer-of-escalation after layer-of-escalation, until there is only 1 faction left alive.

I think the north Atlantic countries have a chance at enduring, but .. gonna need to be transforming into agile-evolution, immediately, if they want that..

Institution-mode isn't viable, in the totality of what's our-species' karma.

Which regulatory controls?

European chemical legislation is seen as some of the strictest in the world. Do you think the laws currently in place are enough, or do you fear the weakening of protections in the name of simplification? Orellana: The EU and its member states have been leaders internationally in controlling chemicals and toxic pollution.

eg forever chemicals like PFAS

Yeah, this isn't about vegan sausage names, it is really important not to go backwards by deregulating this!
