Rules:

  1. Be civil. Disagreements happen, that does not give you the right to personally insult each other.

  2. No racism or bigotry.

  3. Posts from sources that aren't known to be incredibly biased for either side of the spectrum are preferred. If this is not an option, you may post from whatever source you have as long as it is relevant to this community.

  4. Post titles should be the same as the article title.

  5. No spam, self-promotion, or trolling.

Instance-wide rules always apply.

War sucks ass, but it sure as hell does make a lot of money, and meanwhile people are too busy being riled up to really focus on that aspect.

yeah-- that's why we put so much money into israel. it stims the shit out of our economy

It doesn't really stimulate economy, it just pays the people who own arms businesses.

Stimulating the economy involves giving money to people who have less, such that they can spend more. People who have an excess of money don't spend more, they just get better at hiding it away.
