Or it creates a perfect place for another Hitler to rise that has nuclear weapons.

Valid point, but it could also be argued that post WW1 policy didn’t hit Germany hard enough to stop them from coming back swinging.

Either way, it’s hard to know what would have happened.

DON’T MOVE TO AMERICA!!!

What’s that from? Hilarious and barely exaggerated.

I’ve read it’s a real ad Russia is running to discourage people from moving to America. I have no idea if that is actually true.

I am certainly no diary farmer, so , help me out here. How do you count the number of times a cow burps in 24 hours? Is there a electronic burp counter? A person who is hired to stand beside a cow and count the number of burps and farts? Educate me.

My favorite line from the article:

The government said it would be a world first, and that farmers should be able to recoup the cost by charging more for climate-friendly products.

Because food prices haven’t skyrocketed over the last year?

This is what happens when know-nothing politicians grandstand in the name of the current issue.

I agree, BUT this is what happens when people vote with their feelings - rather than their common sense.

They elect fuckwads like AOC, MTG, Tliab and Boebert.

They want tasty protein to only be available to the elites. Everyone else can literally eat bugs.

This is the dumbest, most partisan headline one could possibly make off this debate:
Watch: Poll shows DeSantis lost debate by huge margin after refusing to say he’ll serve full term if reelected (msn.com)

In reality… DeSantis said:

ā€œWell listen, I know that Charlie’s interested in talking about 2024 and Joe Biden, but I just want to make things very, very clear, the only worn-out, old donkey I’m looking to put out to pasture is Charlie Crist.ā€

Sometimes I think it would be nice to have some more restriction for the press to stop bullshit like this, but I know that ends up badly for everyone.

vote with your eyeballs .. they’re looking for views and with headlines like that, views is what they get .. you sharing it, even out of spite, doesn’t help tbh .. Streisand effect and all that

This headline took so many turns I didn’t know when it would stop.
Ultra-MAGA ā€˜Hot Babe’ who claimed Obama is a Illuminati lizard turns out to be a Chinese spy (msn.com)

Brings some important questions for sure though…

This story has not relevant pictures. I give it no stars.

Full disclosure, I’m very conservative. Every judge who has voted against her needs to be castrated and run out of town.

She’s not a journalist. If she worked as a real journalist she wouldn’t be in this position.

You mean if she got hired at any of the prestigious journalist fronts like Vice, Vox, Slate, Buzzfeed or National Inquirer, she wouldn’t be in this situation?

Interesting.

I meant if she was a real journalist. If she qualifies as a journalist, then all of us posting here are journalists.

Regardless, if she had an employer, it would be held accountable, not her.

Why would a journalist be protected from this, but a common citizen would not have that same protection?

The real journalist works for an employer who would be responsible for what it publishes. Does one sue a reporter or the newspaper for libel?

This also not a freedom of the press issue but a free speech one.
