After much discussion, we are re-opening this thread. All previous rules are still in place, that means:
1. absolutely no discussion of potential China/Taiwan conflict (militarily, politically, anything!)
2. no attacking other members, no matter how their opinions may differ from you (no slurs, name calling, etc.)
3. no one-liner posts
4. no single Twitter/Reddit posts, in fact we highly recommend not to use Twitter/Reddit as your source of information
*The above are immediately ban-able offenses!
5. keep the Ukraine conflict discussion to this thread - that means don't flood the World News thread!
6. posting a link to anything (news sites, official announcements, etc.) must be accompanied by some sort of analysis allowing for further discussion
7. if all you want is to call out another member, but have nothing useful to bring forward to continue the discussion, then don't do it
8. call out inappropriate behaviour, not difference in opinion
9. if you see a troll post, the right thing to do is to IGNORE it!
We hope this thread will be used to provide useful updates on what is happening, staying away from obvious propaganda and mis-information.
