      Fucking christ man, I just woke up and you’re already flinging your shit at others

      This place is starting to get worse than reddit. Same amount of crazies, but much higher density and not nearly enough of the normal, self-aware people to make it bearable.

        I’ll defend my statement.

        The previous statement made by username_1 is clearly authoritarian in nature due to:

        1. Comparing Chinese and Russian journalism to that of the USA journalism

        2. Opposing journalism entirely

        It’s literally one of the core tenants of fascism, “Controlled Mass Media”.

          At the risk of breaking rule 3 point 3, which specifically forbids the topic of politics:

          Can you not see how literally all of those points are applicable to the present-day USA? The comment is accurate, correct, and factual.

          Regardless of whether you think you’re right or wrong, or your opinion of the other person, you will not call any community member a fascist, a nazi, a communist, a Maoist, a liberal, a fence-sitter, a Posadist, or any other politically charged insult. If a comment or post is in violation of the rules, you can report it. If you need to vent your frustration, you can go to Twitter. I won’t allow this community to turn into a Linux-flavored political partisanship shit-show.

          This discussion is over.

      Sir, if you’re joking, with stuff like this, I suggest adding a /j or something like that
