  • To quote a bit of context from your link:

    MintPress News supported former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, and the governments of Russia and Iran. It opposes the governments of Israel and Saudi Arabia, and reports geopolitical events from an anti-Western perspective.[6] In one contentious article, MintPress News asserted that the Ghouta chemical attack in Syria was perpetrated by rebel groups rather than by the Syrian government, a claim pushed by the Russian and Syrian governments and rejected by much of the international community.[4]

    MintPress News was a major media domain that spread disinformation about the White Helmets, a Syrian volunteer organization.[7] The site has been accused of regularly publishing pro-Russian propaganda,[8] and has been described as a conspiratorial website by media studies and disinformation scholars.[9][10]

    MintPress News is headquartered in Minnesota, where it operated one office location until 2014.



  • I give Nazis all the rights they want to give to me. And all the lefts too.

    If you follow an ideology of intolerance, you are no longer entitled to tolerance from others. I will not engage in discourse with followers of an ideology that would enslave my family and likely deport, imprison or exterminate those who are of color and/or disabled.

    That’s what it comes down to. You can’t have any sort of discussion after that point. The conversation has been reduced to either I stop you or you destroy my life. There’s nothing more to be said.

    If I’m not human in your eyes, you’ve already proven your inhumanity to me.
