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.

And the retaliation to that retaliation is Poland blocking access to USA social media?

That would be a political suicide of an already unpopular government, and handing the country over to the russian-funded Konfederacja. As much as I would love for it to be accomplishable without it.

probably whats making them unpopular and russian assets palatable in the first place, US social media is not just a psy-ops tool that russia knows how to use better

I first read it as "Trump will retaliate to Poland's proposed bitch tax" and I thought that yeah, it's totally something that could have happened.
