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.

An Iranian state newspaper has issued a death threat against Donald Trump, as fears grow of war between Iran and the US.

Kayhan newspaper is widely regarded as the voice of the most hardline factions in the country’s clerical establishment. Its editor is appointed directly by the supreme leader.

However, the death threat sparked outrage in Iran, with political figures warning that it gave the US president a pretext to strike their country.

Seriously, fash news?

The empire has been threatening iran with a nuclear holocaust for decades... Ofc no mention.

It does, however, unite them with a certain proportion of Americans. My only issue is that you shouldn't need to issue a threat, just carry it out, like they did to your guy.
