Who does America have, of equal caliber to combat them? Our immediate neighbors are pacifists.

Are you referring to Canada?

[Beast Blood]

Our immediate neighbors are pacifists.

Pardon me, did you just say something to me, eh? I'll have you know I graduated at the top of my class in the Canadian Politeness Force, and I've been involved in numerous secret runs to Tim Hortons, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in welcoming warfare and am the most passive aggressive member of the entire Canadian population. You are a person that I have yet to make friends with. I will talk to you with kindness the likes of which have never been seen before on this Earth, mark my passiveness. You think you can get away with not saying thank you? Think again, neighbour. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of syrup drinking moose across the northern territories and your IP is being traced so you better prepare for the gift baskets, buddy. The gift baskets that not only contain Gift cards, but donuts from Tim Hortons too. You're gonna be befriended, guy. I can be nice anywhere, anytime, and can be nice to you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just if I write letters. Not only am I extensively trained in passive aggressive combat, but I have access to the entire moose army of the Canadian Maple Leaf Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to welcome your friendly ass right into the neighbourhood. You little neighbourino. If you had only known what friendly retribution your comment was about to bring down, maybe you would have eaten poutine with me. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're gonna let me pay the bill because that's how nice I am, guy. I will put you in the hospital and it will cost nothing cause our healthcare is free. I'll say sorry now, friendo.

I was, yes, and as far as NATO goes, I believe most of them wouldn't be entirely too effective against those 2 superpowers. Hell, Iceland doesn't even have a military.

But, again, it might just be me watching too much Red Dawn, Post Apoc war movies and playing Fallout.

An old classmate of mine's friend's sister is missing from New Haven, CT. Not really getting any attention, so I'm posting where I can.

Anyone surprised that that is his take.

Flag-wearing man throws Molotov cocktail into Austin Dems HQ

[Spirit Ghidorah 2010]

Police cruise around in an unmarked van shooting rubber bullets at a protesting crowd. One permit-carrying man, hearing gunfire, drew his sidearm and returned fire. Upon the police revealing themselves, he immediately surrendered. The police proceeded to beat him anyways. Thankfully, the man was cleared of charges, and his attorney just released video footage which is...not pretty.

Now that's an overreaction and reverse racism type of deal. But hey, as long as it diversify.

Also, wasn't just posting headlines considered spam? Oh, that's right, it's following the liberal agenda my bad.


Meh, I don't care lol.

Also, wasn't just posting headlines considered spam? Oh, that's right, it's following the liberal agenda my bad.

The actual issue was fighting/arguing via links without adding any kind of commentary/context. The hope was to either put an end to the implicit personal sniping involved and hopefully foster more nuanced discussion. The request wasn't targeted at liberals, communists, moderates, centrists, fascists, anarcho-socialists, or any other specific group. Personally, I don't care much what goes on this thread - I don't come to TK for my news, and I hope nobody else does either - so long as it's peaceful and free of disinformation.

Duly noted, but what is misinformation exactly? Just to make sure not to cross your lines.

Information that can be easily and reliably verified as false, though the specific concern is with dangerous information that can easily be verified as false (such as recommending injecting bleach as a way of combating a virus).

Huh, you administrators and Mods need to get on the same page with this since I was given a warning for "downplaying" covid in saying I complied with the science. But that's I guess in the past so going forward get on the same page.

[Rando Yaguchi]

Meh, I don't care lol.

I thought we worked this out via PMs yesterday? You've been warned for flamebaiting in the past, and you've made a point of flamebaiting the staff in multiple threads since you came back yesterday. It's a clear pattern of behavior - no one is targeting you for your political views. So let's move on to the news, eh?

I am not flamebaiting the staff but rather making observations and saying my critiques of it. As everyone should have the right to do so, now if I was using flamatory language then yes, but I'm just stating my displeasure with the system it has in place as it stands now. That is all, now if the staff can not take criticism then say it, that I can not criticize the staff and that's it.

But like I've said, I stated my peace so that's that.

Goji it would be easier for you to just stop playing the victim. What you are doing now is acting like a kid that pushing their parents buttons as far as they can go with out being disrespectful enough to cross a line into getting reprimanded. Yes you have a right to your opinion and yes no one should shut your voice down even if they disagree with you but you just got a 1 month ban and the first thing you do is play a cold war with the mods over what got you the temp ban?

If the mods are truly as bad as you feel they are and they want you out becasue your not a liberal then why are you giving them the ammo they need? Unless someone mods have been bating you in another thread I haven't seen?

[goji89]

I said what I needed to say.... I'm done

[eabaker]

For now, let's all drop the matter.
