A number of 'people' commenting that I block quite a lot. Yes. It's called curating my feed, to remove juvenile anonymous accounts, those who use verbal abuse, those who post obvious misinformation. Often, all 3. If you want to debate, get a real name and a real argument.

You want a statue ? Here's a statue !!. This in #Växjö, #Sweden commemorates the day of 13 April 85 when local housewife Danuta Danielsson whopped Neo Nazi Seppo Seluska with her handbag. She became a local hero. Danuta's mother was a survivor in #Auschwitz.
