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.

"I am a Nigerian Princess and I am going to start my own UN. If you decide to invest a billion dollars in it now, you are guaranteed to at least double your investment by the end of the year."

"Board of Peace" tracks better than "Golden Dome". Good phrase donny. That'll make everyone forget about your pedophiliac degeneracy.

Excuse my ignorance but who in the flaming fuck would pay this child rapist douchebag a thin dime? Oh you say, then my country will be protected as I paid it off. As we have seen countless times over the past few months it changes its mind every 30 seconds on any point big or small if it will benefit itself. Well, PT Barnum did say there is a sucker born every minute.

I thought it was about the Gaza Strip "peace" plan. Did I miss something here?
