Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Pretty much every major news site has an article about the Iranians shooting down a US fighter jet on the front page.
Can you guess what news site as of the time of this post has absolutely no mention of it?
Wow.
Confirmed as of this post.
And to think, that's where people like Supes gets their "news."
Explains a lot.

Shit, if they've got the ejection seat they've probably got the pilot.
Not good at all.

May not mean much in the long run, and it may have been a lucky shot, but in a war of propaganda it certainly puts a hole in Trump's "totally obliterated" line.

There is absolutely no mention of it even in the section titled "Iran War" of which this event is highly relevant.
FNC is reporting extensively on it at this point.

... is it not a good thing the downed pilot was retrieved by US special forces? Were you rooting for Iran to capture him or something?

No. Nor having a U.S. fighter jet shot down. How about you? Are you happy a U.S plane was shot down?
How about this, how do you feel about it?

I think all 'Murcans should be outraged at an American plane being shot down. After all, it was in international airspace, minding its own business ... Oh wait.

I'm sorry, don't you want him rescued?
What kind of American are you?
