People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

MODERATORS
I assume that the percentages refer to the number of respondents that have voted for that world leader as the biggest threat, so these numbers don’t tell anything about the relative perceived threat amongst them. The only thing you can conclude is that more people ranked Kim Jong Un the highest than Jinping or Putin.
This was in 2019 and if my memory serves me right, Kim Jong Un had been testing an intercontinental missile around that time and was threatening the world with nuclear weapons much more than usual. Putin had already annexed regions in Ukraine, but apparently more people found Kim Jong Un to be the highest threat to world peace with how things were developing back then. The full scale invasion started a few years later.
