Trump and Putin share a private moment in the car
www.nbcnews.com
President Putin joined President Trump in his presidential vehicle, "The Beast." They appeared to be alone in the back seat — an image that likely won't sit well with Ukrainians, who have been excluded from the summit, NBC Nightly News anchor Tom Llamas says.

Putin riding in the frickin Beast, are u fckn kidding me?

He who drinks with the enemy while his ally bleeds is no hero but a fool. You grant him honor while he seeks to burn your and your ally’s home. No word of peace holds meaning while his sword is still raised against those who stand with you.

        It’s an article NOW. See the Edit where I explain that.

        When it was posted, it was solely an image and was removed. When OP corrected it, I restored it and added the edit to my comment.

            LOL - Reddit mods would just nuke the comments and not say why. I’m at least going to give you a reason.

              Exactly , on reddit the entire chain would be either deleted and locked with a few bans handed out , or the post locked for civility or whatever or outright deleted haha.

              People really get angry at you for properly modding without the heavy weight reactions of reddit mods.

                Lemmy in general gets mad at modding full stop. There’s a large contingent of anarchists who chafe at anyone else daring to tell them what they can and cannot do.

                Well, welcome to “life” kids. Without mods, this place would be over-run with spam, CSAM, propaganda, calls for murder and mayhem, and overt toxic hostility to other users.

                We don’t allow that shit. Don’t like it? Nobody is forcing you to stay.

                  thats just false anarchists then, anarchism is kinda all being on the same level and helping each other , your helping us just by keeping all the bad stuff out in short said.

                  btw thanks for modding.

                You’d prefer a mod who just operates silently? Offending bullshit is going to be removed either way, the choices are doing it with or without transparency.

                We don’t have anywhere near the trash reddit does, but that doesn’t mean we tolerate it.

                Reddit would just be:

                Removed
                Removed

                Removed
                Removed
                Removed

                Removed

                I’m at least going to tell you why something got removed.

                  A message about how the thread is locked because “y’all can’t behave” would be the cherry on top of this

                Do you realize how much effort this takes?

                None. At all. Bu-ban, unban. :)

                Fastest permaban I did was on a spam account. Caught it within 7 minutes of account creation and posting.

                Fastest ban I’ve seen was done by an admin on one of those hundreds of “Anti-Yanks” accounts. Banned instantly on creation. They didn’t even get to post.

                  Oh my god, that’s genuinely made my entire week. I’m crying with laughter right now.

                  I don’t know what it is about subversive behavior appearing in official documentation that amuses me so much.

    Knowing how paranoid he is, there is no way in hell Putin would have allowed this to happen if he wasn’t sure Trump was in his pocket.

    What are the odds that something small and electronic “accidentally” slipped out of Putin’s pocket and got “lost” in the seat cushions of the presidential limo?

      *Asset Krasnov. He’s compromised or otherwise loyal to Putin. But he’s not putting on disguises and decoding dead drops or anything!

      Come on, US presidents are meeting with war criminals every time they look in the mirror or meet with their cabinets.

      Or did you seriously already forget all the stuff the USA was doing in the Middle East, in Laos or in South America. Admittedly, the last one was never an official war but “only” secret agency stuff.

    I wonder if the bloke with the bellend face will tell tiny evil criminal boy that he’s not being respectful enough to the mentally deficient painted scrotum.
