    links or sources? “There are tons of videos of” Obama playing Fortnite with Trump. This is a forum about news discussions so if you’re expecting anybody to come here and not ask for news and sources backing your claims and to trust what you say blindly, you might be a bit lost.

        No idea about that either, maybe I have a fan. I don’t see how a single meaningless upvote is that important though. But it’s also crazy how you insist on replying within minutes without backing your claims. Have you anything to say that is not just hearsay?

          I can’t read for you, sealion. Try Google, if it isn’t blocked in your country.

            Oh, so you get to claim whatever on a news forum, but then when pressed I’m the one who actually has to find out what exactly you’re even talking about? And in case I can’t read your mind, I’m the sealion? How would I even know what events exactly you’re even trying to mysteriously hint at? Come now, if you don’t wish to show me wrong or inform literally anybody beyond vague hearsay what exactly even is the point of you posting here? This ain’t Reddit mate.

                I know what sealioning is. However the effort you took to fetch that bookmarked Wikipedia page you could’ve used to provide me some source for your nuclear threat claims for us to discuss and analyse properly as is typical of a news forum. Given that I’m actually putting a bit of time and effort to reply to you and that the point of this forum is to inform, assuming everybody who comes here has access to every information about whatever remote country you may live on and what specific threats you are referring to is just a waste of bandwidth and account and you might as well just remove yourself from here.

                For instance, those threats could’ve come right after similar threats from your random country in which case it would be escalation (and you’d link me to the wikipedia article of Whataboutism rather than whatever source you find actually interesting, as you people like to do). I have no way of knowing what “constant” threats you are talking about because tensions between some American countries and Russia have been ongoing for more than 10 years now. So far you have made a very strong unsourced claim and then proceeded to waste this comment section by assuming random shit about me. If you don’t have anything of substance to say, go back to Reddit to updoot your narwhals in silence.

                Edit: fucking finally you provided it, too bad it was on an unmarked edit. Either way I’m not sure I’d consider something from the height of the war a whole year ago “constant”, and the threat is being made by a TV show. In their own words “Moscow says it went into Ukraine as a pre-emptive strike against NATO, as Ukraine was seeking nuclear weapons.”, so it would still fall into an escalation rather than a blanket threat. Typical thing done by opposing Nuclear Powers since nuclear bombs were invented.
