It's gonna grow slowly as Reddit starts booting out some accounts deem as "violent".

That's why he's also called Phony Stark. Never want to give the bastard view counts, which of course feeds his egomania.

Japan has most of the bases, but half the Japanese feel like chafing while wearing the American security blanket and the other half itching to modify or repeal Article 9 for rearmament, while the PH -- no formal US basing since 1992 -- is naked in the face of Mainland Chinese aggression and needing the investments of any kind, even if they have to deal with a two-faced liar and his vicious cabinet and legislature.

The orange bastard thinks Junior is one and the same, except Junior is more of a Marcos family nerd of sorts, while his sister Imee is now also his archenemy and allied to Duterte, and happens to inherit much more of her father's egomania.

Nonetheless, they are both successful beneficiaries of mass disinformation and hatred. The thing is, however, in terms of political stability the Philippines now seems a lot milder compared to the mounting ongoing oppression in the US.

Sounds like an arrangement that happens in the developing world, where landowners and businessmen are down with police chiefs at weekend drinking binges and sports betting.

Rock music. Specifically during the 90s and early 00s.

A moment in time before pop music dominated teen mindsets.

If I am going to the boonies, I'd rather have an AM radio only for news and weather updates.

Man, he wants to play catch by being at the receiving end of a 500lb MK82 bomb made somewhere in the US Midwest.

In the subreddits that have anything to do with politics and/or lambasting right-wingers, any comment or post with even the mildest language criticizing a certain controversial personality now gets a fucking instaban. They don't care how you defend yourself, a spade is a spade to them.

Otherwise some mods do tend to be on a powertrip.

Stuff like medical record portals, financial websites for my companies retirement plan. Stuff I have little choice about. And most fail silently.

I recall how South Korea literally painted itself into a corner for becoming too dependent on Internet Explorer after years of using it with a security implementation based entirely on ActiveX.

I'm currently using a user-agent switcher plugin. Allows me to spoof servers into believing I'm running a different browser.

You can't -- only way is to avoid all politically-charged subreddits. They'll ban anyone using even remotely violent words to describe US current events, especially in large subs where US politics and news are discussed. You can't even create a new account and use it immediately after a ban.

It's really a chilling effect over there. I betcha they're now using something new to supplant human moderators, and reactionaries are prowling the subs to flag anyone desecrating their idols.
