    Someone on Twitter compared the Donald to the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail refusing to concede defeat even after King Arthur had hacked off all his limbs.

    Pretty apt.

    Many of the world leaders have already congratulated President elect Biden.

    I don't believe the leaders of China, Russia, or North Korea have!!

    China did. We can certainly count out Putin and Un from congrats.

    I have it on good authority (from an anonymous source) that Biden is secretly planning on moving the US embassy in Jerusalem to somewhere in southern Turkey.
    Update:
    Sources within the president elects administration have roundly condemned recent reports of secret plans to move the US embassy in Jerusalem to southern Turkey, and say if there was such a plan the embassy would be moved to an undisclosed location along Turkey's eastern seaboard. When reached out for comment Biden would only say "Come on, man. You don't really believe that... do you?".
    In unrelated news, caravans of BLM and antifi forces have been quietly moving towards Turkey's eastern coastline.

    This just in:

    FNN news reporter Ron Winestain here on the ground near the district of Kurtalan, and we are now seeing what look like covered wagons with signs saying "Portland or Bust". This could be the first wave of BLM and antifa forces moving towards the undisclosed location for the new site of Jerusalems US embassy. I will attempt to interview one of the drivers of those wagons, and hopefully confirm earlier reports of forces moving toward the embassys new location.

    I'm now approaching one of the drivers, an angry looking fellow with flabby pecs and sporting a man-bun...

    The post that was quoted here has been removed
    Which fake news network do you work for?

    It appears one of the threads here was prematurely shut down. I'm somewhat disappointed because
    I was hoping to see you expand on your ideas about antisemitic supporters of Israel. I suppose you could try doing that here but this thread could get shut down as well, so...

    ... so it's probably best to limit your insane theories to other matters of interest.

    What then? Biden is giving these frustratingly coy answers, like "I don't believe there's a need", etc.

    This is Trump. Of course he won't leave.

    Serious question: when January comes and Trump doesn't leave: what then? Who do we call? Is that person a Trump appointee? If so, what if he refuses to do his job? Trump already ordered people to defy Congressional subpo ...[text shortened]... ry of state already said there will be a "smooth transition to Trump's second term".

    Any ideas?

    You say 'remained' divided back then but what about now, are they still divided and what are the stances of the two sides? I assume there are just 2 sides.
    Is the divide over 'racial' issues or more economic?

    The depth of the divisions in post-Civil War Finnish society was brought home to me a year or two ago when I happened to watch a film called Diary of a Worker (Työmiehen päiväkirja), directed in 1967 by Risto Jarva. That was nearly half a century after the Finnish Civil War, and more than two decades after the end of the most recent hostilities between Finland and the USSR.

    The story concerns a manual labourer of socialist persuasion who marries a bourgeois woman. He proposes a holiday in (nearby) Leningrad, much to the disgust of his wife's uncle, who thinks that Finns should boycott the Soviet Union. The abiding class tensions between the couple and among their relatives were very illuminating.
