This is a good development (creating a megathread) -

It really depends, also a bit of an experiment. There are is a plusside and downside imo. Until now, with 4k- 8k users it wasn’t necessariy and most users didn’t like it afaik. It creates also some ambiguity for mods & users, as what and how to post , engage and react and so. We’ll see how it goes.

Some analysts say Khameini was holding the more extreme hardliners in check. If so, we might still see worse to come first. Perhaps the people may have a chance, but I’m not so sure.

Hungary can’t block it since they weren’t involved:

" EU lawyers drafted a workaround using another obscure clause (Article 20 of the Treaty of the European Union) that allows some form of “enhanced co-operation” among a coalition of willing member states. In practice, only 24 member states will contribute to financing the loan for Ukraine–Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are out of the scheme."

My advice since your account is new: instead of posting the same topic twice witin same time frame . Better to add this AP postsource to your second post, and delete this post. That way you’ll have one (discussion) thread.

Hopefully this marks the end of all the orange and Maga BS, instead of the beginning of more restrictions and repressions. We’ll see if and how that unfolds.

And US has send a second aircraft carrier group to Middle East. What will he do, 1 and 1 makes two.

Note that some days ago FT published an article titled " Zelenskyy planning elections in Ukraine and vote on peace deal".

Afaik, there was a huge cybercrime op in November 2025. Haven’t found any alt sources, except the original windscribe post. It could be that this is still an ongoing operation.

children’s TV and movies here in Scandinavia 😁

That’s very dark. You sound almost European…

Context: The 1984 Sino–British Joint Declaration set the terms of the 1997 handover, under which China pledged to uphold “one country, two systems” for 50 years.

Influence from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-led central government in Hong Kong expanded significantly during the 2020s, roughly two decades after the handover. The 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests prompted the introduction of the 2020 Hong Kong national security law and the 2021 Hong Kong electoral change

Yeah Whitaker definitely has his own $$ agenda Something about a 10 billion deal with Ruzzia? But no need to shoot the messenger ( OP downvotes?).

Well said.

That pedo prince (Andrew) isn’t a Prince anymore. There is also the Norwegian creep, he’s being reinvistigated again. But that won’t take care of the real problem, will it?

Ah ok well done!

returned = rescued or saved. Not a prisoner exchange.

If I were a conspiracy theorist I would say that the release of the Files were redacted in such a way to topple political adversaries in Europe. I mean that goal is part the Heritage Project 2025.

No problem, since you pointed it out I looked it up and TIL. Lol.

Technically" Steatesman" but she’s a woman. So maybe Stateswoman. Yeah I’ll correct it.

Watched an interview once of her. She seems like a real Stateswoman *, doing her best for the people.

edit* : probably stateswoman is applicable, instead of statesperson.

Denial is human, but if we want to escape it, we have to get organized.

Correct.
