The Democrats violated rule 1, if you're going to cheat, don't get caught.

Soros hates China just as much as you do.

The billionaire philanthropist George Soros has used his annual speech at the World Economic Forum, in Davos, to launch a scathing attack on China and its president Xi Jinping.

I forgot what's exactly codified in the new set of rules (and I don't feel like reading them again), but I can tell you that one thing the mods really got sick of (I think) is posters calling other posters out for minor rules infractions and basically non-stop-whining about others in this "community" (such as it is).

It's really tedious, especially when it goes back and forth for several posts. Maybe we try and just share our thoughts on a topic?

Fair point, but I don't think what Ten is doing is minor when it is one of the more clear rules.

I don't usually do this, but Bono is right to note that:


"(2) Any post that is simply a cut and paste of a social media or URL post without commentary is disallowed with the same moderation/banning policy as above."

95% of 10's post historically are disallowed under this User Agreement provision. It's not minor and is done repeatedly.

I get it, especially since the don't-post-just-a-link suggestion was mine (maybe others suggested this, as well).

Still, while I acknowledge that "if you see something, say something" is de rigueur these days, maybe, in a lot of cases, it might help threads flow better if we just let the mods do their job.

Our role can be to lead by example and model the rules. JMO

Ah, If only rule 2 was being enforced by the mods even once or twice.

I also suggested something like this, though for the record sometimes I think a single link is a legitimate response in a topic. One-offs aren't the issue. It's more when people just do it over and over and essentially spam a thread with them that it becomes a problem.

Yup, it was another DJT failure, like Trump Airlines and Trump steaks and Trump Atlantic City.

I just wish more networks showed it, we are in fraudulent times and IMO democracy dies in the darkness.

I'm very disappointed in Fox News, the others I could understand but disappointed in them as well.

That failure of reason and logic should have been available to the masses to see.

Did Truth Social air it?

Speaking of the media, there's some misunderstanding about why the Ellisons want to control legacy media. It's not for Trump.

It's this kind of dishonest framing that makes people hate Twitter randos. Larry Ellison gave Trump $45 million. He just did it indirectly through a PAC.

his relationship with Trump is more private, to the tune of $45m.

Now THAT'S a dishonest framing. If we can call donations to a non-profit support for Trump and then post-election bribery, then you can certainly start calling out all the USAID/NGO BS that the Democrats use to influence events.

But of course, you won't do that.

The question at hand was whether or not Ellison supported Trump. Other groups supporting other things is a different answer to a different question.
