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.

Sweden said it will issue another update of a Cold War-era civil emergency advice booklet later this month, with the new version “adapted to better reflect today’s security policy reality” such as what to do in case of nuclear attacks.

The booklet, “If Crisis or War Comes,” includes lessons learned from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, officials said Tuesday.

“It is no secret that the security situation has deteriorated since the previous brochure was issued in 2018,” Swedish Civil Defense Minister Carl-Oskar Bohlin told a press conference.

He said that the military threat against Sweden has increased and an armed attack cannot be excluded. “The threat picture is more complex than earlier and includes cyberattacks, influence attacks and risk of sabotage,” Bohlin said.
