So... Now the Danish governmet will be aiding the IDF in deploying lures for starving children in Gaza, enabling the horrifying and abhorrent practices of the IDF around their Food Aid (Read: shooting range).

The Faroese government is allowing Russian fishing trollers that have been known to act in spionage against NATO to dock and fish in our seas.

This is in a deal that barely returns anything, and practically returns NOTHING to the people of the Faroes.

What a shameful display!

We have to fight misinformation, no matter where it comes from!!

Dangerous gasses aren’t goofy green colors. This is NOT chlorine gas, this is a smoke grenade.

We rely on our arguments being based in facts, in science and objective truth. We don’t need to lie, the truth is bad enough as is.
