Now that the press is shut down we can get back to the business of defending Ukraine from Putin’s invitation.

Actually I object to any gay imagery being posted on FR.

Moreover, I object to the hypocrisy of the pro-Putin crowd who celebrate Putin’s laws against homosexual imagery and then they post homosexual imagery on this site.

Besides, if I wanted to see faggotry I’d sign up for DU and not FR.

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has signed off on legislation that would significantly expand the government’s regulatory power over the news media, a measure that journalists have warned will erode press freedom.

It's bizarre seeing the NY Times express concern about press freedom in other countries, when they are so ardently in favor of restrictions on free speech in this country.

Festering boils of Biden propaganda on the backside of FR.

Once again, I have to say, there is no wonder Zelenskyy is called a Nazi or even a Communist.

“Most are posting from places other than America.”

Prove this. This is a very serious claim and other people have been banned for this kind of nonsense.

Jon, it appears there are more that agree with you than disagree.

It's painful to read the "if you aren't 100% for Ukraine, you MUST be Pro-Putin." The stupid really does hurt.

O/T, but as a former Army officer, it galls me to see the outpouring of support for this Santos fellow. Yes, I understand it, doesn't mean I need to like it.

It's like the old saying, "two wrongs don't make a right, but three do."

Well it is your boy Zelensky turnin’ on the gays. That should have bothered a person with such strict morals.

I mean they had to really get jazzed over his piano playing routine.

She's one of those Ukie religious hypocrites who loves to virtue signal by asking everyone to pray while she wallows in War Blood.

Yep. These people are brutal and bloodthirsty. I see some of them wishing slow, torturous and painful deaths on their enemies, too, such as Russian soldiers.

There are people in positions of power who are very evil and even those I don’t wish slow and painful deaths on. A quick, clean hanging maybe, but people wishing torturous deaths on people makes them just as bad as, if not worse, than their enemies.

I think Zelensky is obviously such a Great Hero and so Saintly, that any Law he signs should be enforced in the United States against The New York Times.

Without oversight or appeal.

So you instead support faggotry through supporting Zelensky?

You like Zelensky’s faggotry, but refuse to talk to it, yet, you get on me for posting a clothed Zelensky, feeling himself out, twice-over, from something he, himself did and published?

That's screwed up, MeganC.

Santos

I honestly haven't followed one bit of the Santos drama. I am so over politics, I don't care if he stays or goes. It's a rigged game.

It is incredibly stupid and short-sighted of them. I just laugh at them as they dig their heels in, pushing that crap.

I’m pretty sure they’re taught that in troll training.
