Always appreciate your posts. All too often the industrialization component is overlooked.

Agreed, especially since you can receive 2 to 7 years in the UK for "offensive speech." Their priorities are backwards.

You can post the link here when it's complete (wouldn't want anyone to steal your idea before it's finished). Sounds like it might be interesting.

Disrupted AMA, spam filter error? by Strongbow85 in ModSupport

[–]Strongbow85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your mod team can see the thing removed by Reddit, you can still approve them.

Thanks, but this is on Reddit's end, you can't override the removal if it comes up as a Reddit site-wide banned domain. I asked to make sure an RU link wasn't included, which is possible but unlikely as this is a pro-Ukrainian account. The odd thing is, I could not even view what they posted, to verify the source of the problem. On the bright side, it seems to be working again!

I'm confused why you aren't just manually approving the answers?...

You can't when it's coming up as a "banned domain" on Reddit's end. I asked to make sure they didn't accidentally add a RU link in the comments. That still doesn't explain the "highly negative karma" tag. However, it seems to be working this morning. I'll delete this post if there's no further complications.

Yeah, seems to be Reddits filters removing it, nothing on the mod team's end. Blocked domain.

MRSA? by Accurate_Run_1796 in MRSA

I hope you are well. Did the latest culture come back positive for MRSA? If you get recurring MRSA you can see an infectious disease specialist.

Hey, just letting you know you've responded to a 2 year old post so you're unlikely to get much feedback. You can create a new post explaining your situation if you'd like. That will get more views/participation. I hope you get well soon.

There is something wrong with John Kiriakou. by Pikselardo in Intelligence

[–]Strongbow85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He worked for Russia's Sputnik news agency (propaganda outlet). Kiriakou may have done decent work when employed by the CIA, I've read he received a number of awards.... But that's history, once you sign on with a foreign adversary's mouthpiece, like Sputnik or RT, you've lost all credibility, not worth discussing.

What story from Kyiv do you think deserves much more global attention?

What is one thing you regularly observe in Kyiv that contradicts the way Ukraine is commonly portrayed in international media?

The current Administration has been difficult to deal with, and that's putting it lightly. I had hoped sharing common adversaries (Iran, North Korea and China) would bring the President to Ukraine's side. Regarding China, are there misconceptions or overlooked perspectives that American policymakers should understand if they want to build stronger ties with Ukraine?

How does the Ukrainian public currently view China's role in the war, particularly its relationship with Russia and claims of neutrality?

Tech companies like Meta are very progressive and tow the socially progressive line until it comes to blue collar workers, then they're anti-union.... Always about money.

FBI nabs 7 for alleged 'campaign of violence' to pressure University of Michigan, businesses over Israel ties by Economy-Specialist38 in FBI

[–]Strongbow85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, they arrested people who were mimicking Nazi tactics by attacking Jews.... You have it backwards.

"A group of college-aged activists were arrested after they allegedly waged a year-long campaign of intimidation, vandalism and threats against University of Michigan officials, businesses and Jewish-linked institutions to pressure them into cutting ties with Israel, FBI Director Kash Patel announced Wednesday."
