New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

@Tony, I’m pretty sure it’s Liberty that was a former friend of the US govt. and it’s Liberty who has received the same treatment as our other former friends, all of whom used to have a place in our hearts, not so much in recent years.

Very Good.

Mr Fish is being very optimistic.

There’s nothing like giving the 99% lots of encouragement.

“THE US GOVERNMENT THAT GOT THROWN OVER”

However, the 15% of Germans thought it was impossible in 1939, and it turned out exceedingly horrible. Even then when it was all over in 1945, most of the NAZI leaders escaped - to The USA.

Aren’t Truthdig, and Mr.Fish putting themselves at risk of a drone attack by publishing this?

Brave People.

Tony
