Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
“You know, we won spoils after World War II. We told our allies, lose the colonies,” he continued. “We took half Japan’s gold they stole, built military bases on everyone’s turf, and pegged the world currencies to the dollar. Was that fair?”
Now that you mention it Jessie...
Oh, so you mean all of the soft power we built up post WW2 that has been unceremoniously burned over the past year? Fucking idiot.
Taking over your neighbors house because your grandmother once lived there is not common sense. That's basically the argument, although the oil companies that were ousted were already seeking compensation.
it's fox. very much rage-baity.
this should be for entertainment purposes only. even their lawyers admitted to it.
I really wish that there was a way to prosecute people spreading toxic lies. Even when it's 100% provably a harmful lie, we let it go in America. Usually even when it's bigotry that gets people killed.
I think we are at the point that conservatives proved we cannot handle "free speech".
Y'all can't handle the 2nd without abhorrent side effects, what makes you think the 1st would be any different?
I didn't say it would be. But even if I did... Those are very different things.
Fox News is not on the right side of history.

Yeah and YouTube is thick with the fetid stench of MAGA podcasters. So?
People who watch this human claymation figure aren’t critical thinkers. They may as well be watching soap operas from the 50s with the wurlitzer organ “sting” at every dramatic reveal.
This is just what Watters does. The more depraved and evil something is, the more he likes it.
It isn’t common sense to break national and international law to kidnap another leader and claim their resources as your own.
That is what criminals do.
This asshole is worse then Tucker, deepthroating those boots

I mean, I don't think there's never a scenario where we can interdict shipments. Sanctions are important. If Venezuela had been shipping nuclear fissile material to North Korea and we stopped that boat, I'd probably be on board.
The argument for this one was that it was oil being sent to sanctioned nations. I've not seen any convincing evidence that that was the case though. And, even if it was, I'm unconvinced oil shipments rise to the level of interdiction.
But I say all that to say the world isn't black and white. While I agree this interdiction was wrong and Jessie Waters is an idiot, that doesn't mean that we can paint all US interdictions as obviously bad. Each must be weighed on its own merits.
