Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Fish consumption, of course, being a famous cause of obesity?
Edit: Look, I'm making fun of the guy, I'm British, you don't need to all take it upon yourselves to explain fish and chips to me.
It's probably a reference to fish & chips, which... yeah.
I don't think that's the fish part
Fish and chips? Yeah
So Kruschev did it, so it doesn't count, but they should get Ukraine because of something that happened 1200 years ago?
I've learned not to expect consistency from them but somebody there must see how ridiculous they look.
Of course they see. Itβs the saying that gets one defenestrated.
At the risk of whataboutery, Jews claimed Palestine after 2000 years and no one in the West found that a preposterous reason to ethnically cleanse and commit genocide.
It is extremely convenient to have the Palestinians pay the price for Europe's crimes. Logic and consistency have nothing to do with it.
Kruschev gave Crimea to Ukraine so it's consistent to reverse anything he did.
We should be fine, after all since Brexit we've plenty of happy contented British fish, right?
Country with no warm water ports say what?
Careful, a few weeks ago I was told anyone saying "warm water port" is Russian.
If that cunt Putin wants to get in the way of my fish suppers, he's gonna get a face full of dandruff. The wee Dobby looking gobshite that he is. Someone give him a sock so he can fuck off!
Big 'Screw you guys, I'm going home' energy here.
It's worth remembering that most things Russia says about the UK are for the domestic market.
Like all the "turn the uk into glass" stories, barely mentioned here, but a frequent drumbeat on Russian TV.
I think we should respect their sovereignty as they do for other nations.
It was known earlier among Russians as the Northern Sea, Pomorsky Sea or Murman Sea ("Norse Sea");
So the sea is historically Norse, and as know russia is big on respecting historical owners, thus that this sea belongs to the Norsemen.
Gosh, how unexpectedly kind of them. I've been meaning to shed a few pounds, the support is appreciated.
