MB/FC-blessed media ∴ It is known.

No lies detected, but TikToky floaty head content on c/worldnews tends to generate user reports.

That’s a lot, right? How many kgs of cocaine are allowed per banana pallet?

Despite imperial core assertions, this is demonstrably false by reading the agreements.

Any kind of context is for nerds I guess?

He and I already gave context upthread, but here it is again.

• NATO Expansion: What Gorbachev Heard: U.S. Secretary of State James Baker’s famous “not one inch eastward” assurance about NATO expansion in his meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev on February 9, 1990, was part of a cascade of assurances about Soviet security given by Western leaders to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials throughout the process of German unification in 1990 and on into 1991, according to declassified U.S., Soviet, German, British and French documents posted today by the National Security Archive at George Washington University.

Jeffrey Sachs: The War in Ukraine Was Provoked—and Why That Matters to Achieve Peace

Etcetera.

Yup. Its value is purely as a tool of propaganda.

So these sanctions affect all of sixteen people, who are banned from doing business with US companies? 😂 Much ado about nothing.

Or Belgrade/the former Yugoslavia.

Strange pivot since I was not banned for whatever you are describing.

It’s a general observation.

That’s just false.

I guess that could be true: site bans don’t always propagate to the modlogs on other instances.

Maybe, but also deletions don’t always propagate immediately—or ever—to other instances.

The references to Innuendo Studios’ alt-right playbook are… precious.
Anyone to left of me is secretly to the right.

Your combative, incendiary rhetorical style is likely to attract bans all the more often. It looks like you’ve gotten more bans on lemmy.ml than anywhere, and we’re generally sympathetic to your points of view.
