Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

More than 70 were wounded in the attack last Friday evening on Kryvyi Rih. The children were playing on swings and in a sandbox in a tree-lined park at the time. Bodies were strewn across the grass.

“We are not asking for pity,” Oleksandr Vilkul, the head of the city administration, wrote on Telegram as Kryvyi Rih mourned. “We demand the world’s outrage.”

The U.N. Human Rights Office in Ukraine said it was the deadliest single verified strike harming children since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022. It was also one of the deadliest attacks so far this year.

Very few times some images on the internet make me cry.

I know he is a sociopath, I understand that. But as a father, I cannot understand how Putin sleeps at night after being responsible for this horror and so many others. So many dead children, grieving parents. He is a father too. I know he lacks empathy, the rational part of my brain knows this, but I'm unable to imagine seeing the world through his eyes.

What a disgusting monster.

Think of it like this:

They were never taught empathy, or to care for others. Just for what they want and power. Nothing else

Best thing we can do is get more people onto better platforms/apps/websites. Taking action, & working together consistently more in-person & online.
